Automatic Classification of Colorectal Polyps Using Probe-based Endomicroscopy With Artificial Intelligence

December 21, 2018 updated by: Yanqing Li, Shandong University
Probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE) is an endoscopic technique that enables real-time histological evaluation of gastrointestinal mucosa during ongoing endoscopy examination. It can predict the classification of Colorectal Polyps accurately. However this requires much experience, which limits the application of pCLE. The investigators designed a computer program using deep neural networks to differentiate hyperplastic from neoplastic polyps automatically in pCLE examination.
