Augmented reality (AR) is an environment-enhancing technology, widely applied in
the computer sciences, which has only recently begun to permeate the medical
field. Gastrointestinal endoscopy-which relies on the integration of
high-definition video data with pathologic correlates-requires endoscopists to
assimilate and process a tremendous amount of data in real time. We believe that
AR is well positioned to provide computer-guided assistance with a wide variety
of endoscopic applications, beginning with polyp detection. In this article, we
review the principles of AR, describe its potential integration into an endoscopy
set-up, and envisage a series of novel uses. With close collaboration between
physicians and computer scientists, AR promises to contribute significant
improvements to the field of endoscopy.
