BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer is a leading cause of cancer deaths. Several screening tests, such as colonoscopy, can be used to find polyps or colorectal cancer. Colonoscopy reports are often written in unstructured narrative text. The information em...
BACKGROUND: Deep learning techniques are gaining momentum in medical research. Colorectal adenoma (CRA) is a precancerous lesion that may develop into colorectal cancer (CRC) and its etiology and pathogenesis are unclear. This study aims to identify ...

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 deve...
BACKGROUND: Securing sufficient blood perfusion to the anastomotic area after low-anterior resection is a crucial factor in preventing anastomotic leakage (AL). Intra-operative indocyanine green fluorescent imaging (ICG-FI) has been suggested as a to...
Although it has long been known that the immune cell composition has a strong prognostic and predictive value in colorectal cancer (CRC), scoring systems such as the immunoscore (IS) or quantification of intraepithelial lymphocytes are only slowly be...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common types of cancer among men and women. The grading of dysplasia and the detection of adenocarcinoma are important clinical tasks in the diagnosis of CRC and shape the patients' follow-up plans. This stu...
