Automatic Evaluation of Inflammation Activity in Ulcerative Colitis Using pCLE With Artificial Intelligence

October 17, 2019 updated by: Yanqing Li, Shandong University

Automatic Evaluation of Inflammation Activity in Ulcerative Colitis Using Probe-based Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy With Artificial Intelligence

Probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE) is an endoscopic technique that enables to evaluate the inflammation activity of ulcerative colitis with excellent correlation with histopathology. However this requires much experience, which limits the application of pCLE. The investigators designed a computer-aided diagnosis program using deep neural network to make diagnosis automatically in pCLE examination and contrast its performance with endoscopists.

Design Details

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Colon mucosa observed by pCLE
pCLE is used to evaluate the inflammation activity in different parts of the colon mucosa
Diagnostic test: The diagnosis of Artificial Intelligence and endoscopist
When the colon mucosa is observed using pCLE, endoscopist and AI will make a diagnosis independently. In addition, the endoscopist can not see the diagnosis of AI.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The diagnosis efficiency of Artificial Intelligence
Time Frame: 3 months
The primary outcome is to test the diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV of the Artificial Intelligence for evaluation of inflammation activity of UC on pCLE examination.
3 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Contrast the diagnosis efficiency of Artificial Intelligence with endoscopists
Time Frame: 3 months
The secondary outcome is to compare the diagnosis efficiency (including diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV ) between Artificial Intelligence and endoscopists.
3 months
