BACKGROUND: Morphological properties such as length and tortuosity of the large intestine segments play important roles, especially in interventional procedures like colonoscopy.
Obtaining accurate distance or depth information in endoscopy is crucial for the effective utilization of navigation systems. However, due to space constraints, incorporating depth cameras into endoscopic systems is often impractical. Our goal is to ...
Real-time endoscopic rectal lesion characterization employing artificial intelligence (AI) and near-infrared (NIR) imaging of the fluorescence perfusion indicator agent Indocyanine Green (ICG) has demonstrated promise. However, commercially available...
With the advent of the deep learning-based colonoscopy system, the need for a vast amount of high-quality colonoscopy image datasets for training is crucial. However, the generalization ability of deep learning models is challenged by the limited ava...
Grading activity of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) using standardized histopathological scoring systems remains challenging due to limited availability of pathologists with IBD expertise and interobserver variability. In this study, a deep learning...

PURPOSE: This article introduces a novel deep learning approach to substantially improve the accuracy of colon segmentation even with limited data annotation, which enhances the overall effectiveness of the CT colonography pipeline in clinical settin...
OBJECTIVE: Artificial intelligence (AI) tools for histological diagnosis offer great potential to healthcare, yet failure to understand their clinical context is delaying adoption. IGUANA (Interpretable Gland-Graphs using a Neural Aggregator) is an A...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Validated scoring methods such as the Mayo Clinic Endoscopic Subscore (MCES) evaluate ulcerative colitis (UC) severity at the worst colon segment, without considering disease extent. We present the Ulcerative Colitis Severity Cla...
Despite recent surge of interest in deploying colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) for early diagnosis of colorectal diseases, there remains a large gap between the current state of CCE in clinical practice, and the state of its counterpart optical colonosc...
BACKGROUND: Over 300,000 colorectal surgeries are performed annually in the U.S. with up to 10% complicated by anastomotic leaks, which cause significant morbidity and mortality. Despite its significant association with anastomotic leaks, tension is ...
