Abstract

BACKGROUND: Photodocumentation during endoscopy procedures is one of the indicators for endoscopy performance quality; however, this indicator is difficult to measure and audit in the endoscopy unit. Emerging artificial intelligence technology may solve this problem, which requires a large amount of material for model development. We developed a deep learning-based endoscopic anatomy classification system through convolutional neural networks with an accelerated data preparation approach.
