Abstract

OBJECTIVES: Convolutional neural networks (CNN) for computer-aided diagnosis of polyps are often trained using high-quality still images in a single chromoendoscopy imaging modality with sessile serrated lesions (SSLs) often excluded. This study developed a CNN from videos to classify polyps as adenomatous or nonadenomatous using standard narrow-band imaging (NBI) and NBI-near focus (NBI-NF) and created a publicly accessible polyp video database.
