Accurate lesion segmentation based on endoscopy images is a fundamental task for the automated diagnosis of gastrointestinal tract (GI Tract) diseases. Previous studies usually use hand-crafted features for representing endoscopy images, while featur...
The gut microbiota's metabolome is composed of bioactive metabolites that confer disease resilience. Probiotics' therapeutic potential hinges on their metabolome altering ability; however, characterizing probiotics' metabolic activity remains a formi...
nowadays, considering the number of patients per specialist doctor, the size of the need for automatic medical image analysis methods can be understood. These systems, which are very advantageous compared to manual systems both in terms of cost and t...
BACKGROUND: The early diagnosis of various gastrointestinal diseases can lead to effective treatment and reduce the risk of many life-threatening conditions. Unfortunately, various small gastrointestinal lesions are undetectable during early-stage ex...
In order to improve the reliability, safety and whole digestive applicability of the gastrointestinal microrobot (GMR), a novel inchworm-like GMR is proposed in this paper. The expanding mechanism of the robot adopts an overlapping expanding arm stru...
BACKGROUND: This study was aimed to develop a computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system with deep-learning technique and to validate its efficiency on detecting the four categories of lesions such as polyps, advanced cancer, erosion/ulcer and varices at ...
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a complex technology with a steady flow of new applications, including in the pathology laboratory. Applications of AI in pathology are scarce but increasing; they are based on complex software-based machine learning w...
Compared with conventional gastroscopy which is invasive and painful, wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) can provide noninvasive examination of gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The WCE video can effectively support physicians to reach a diagnostic decision...
Although electrogastrography (EGG) could be a critical tool in the diagnosis of patients with gastrointestinal (GI) disease, it remains under-utilized. The lack of spatial and temporal resolution using current EGG methods presents a significant roadb...
