Abstract
BACKGROUND: Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is generally a safe procedure, but adverse events often occur. This highlights the necessity of the quality control of EGD. Complete visualization and photo documentation of upper gastrointestinal (UGI) tracts are important measures in quality control of EGD. To evaluate these measures in large scale, we developed an AI-driven quality control system for EGD through convolutional neural networks (CNNs) using archived endoscopic images.
