Endoscopic ultrasound for pancreatic cystic lesions: a narrative review.

BMJ open gastroenterology
The incidence of incidental pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) has risen in recent years, largely due to advances in and increased use of imaging techniques. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) has become a crucial tool for evaluating and characterising PCLs, ...

Evolving techniques in the endoscopic evaluation and management of pancreas cystic lesions.

Current opinion in gastroenterology
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Accurate diagnosis of pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) is essential to guide appropriate management and reduce unnecessary surgeries. Despite multiple guidelines in PCL management, a substantial proportion of patients still undergo...

Hierarchical attention fusion of EUS-doppler features for GISTs risk assessment.

Computerized medical imaging and graphics : the official journal of the Computerized Medical Imaging Society
Assessing the preoperative malignancy risk of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) is crucial for determining the appropriate treatment plan and prognosis. The current automated diagnosis of GISTs based on endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) pose challeng...

Artificial intelligence-assisted endobronchial ultrasound for differentiating between benign and malignant thoracic lymph nodes: a meta-analysis.

BMC pulmonary medicine
BACKGROUND: Endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) is a widely used imaging modality for evaluating thoracic lymph nodes (LNs), particularly in the staging of lung cancer. Artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted EBUS has emerged as a promising tool to enhance...

Can intraoperative improvement of radial endobronchial ultrasound imaging enhance the diagnostic yield in peripheral pulmonary lesions?

BMC pulmonary medicine
BACKGROUND: Data regarding the diagnostic efficacy of radial endobronchial ultrasound (R-EBUS) findings obtained via transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA)/biopsy (TBB) with endobronchial ultrasonography with a guide sheath (EBUS-GS) for peripheral ...

Computer-aided diagnosis tool utilizing a deep learning model for preoperative T-staging of rectal cancer based on three-dimensional endorectal ultrasound.

Abdominal radiology (New York)
BACKGROUND: The prognosis and treatment outcomes for patients with rectal cancer are critically dependent on an accurate and comprehensive preoperative evaluation.Three-dimensional endorectal ultrasound (3D-ERUS) has demonstrated high accuracy in the...

An artificial intelligence model utilizing endoscopic ultrasonography for differentiating small and micro gastric stromal tumors from gastric leiomyomas.

BMC gastroenterology
BACKGROUND: Gastric stromal tumors (GSTs) and gastric leiomyomas (GLs) represent the primary subtypes of gastric submucosal tumors (SMTs) characterized by distinct biological characteristics and treatment modalities. The accurate differentiation betw...

Prediction of Lymph Node Metastasis in Lung Cancer Using Deep Learning of Endobronchial Ultrasound Images With Size on CT and PET-CT Findings.

Respirology (Carlton, Vic.)
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Echo features of lymph nodes (LNs) influence target selection during endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA). This study evaluates deep learning's diagnostic capabilities on EBUS images f...

An endoscopic ultrasound-based interpretable deep learning model and nomogram for distinguishing pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors from pancreatic cancer.

Scientific reports
To retrospectively develop and validate an interpretable deep learning model and nomogram utilizing endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) images to predict pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs). Following confirmation via pathological examination, a retrosp...

The Role of Artificial Intelligence for Advanced Endoscopy.

Gastrointestinal endoscopy clinics of North America
Artificial intelligence (AI) application in gastroenterology has grown in the last decade and continues to evolve very rapidly. Early promising results have opened the door to explore its potential application to advanced endoscopy (AE). The aim of t...
