We aimed to assess the add-on effect of an Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm (Barrett-Ampel) as a decision support system (DSS) for non-expert endoscopists in the evaluation of Barrett's esophagus (BE) and BERN. Methods Twelve videos with multimodal imaging white light (WL), narrow-band imaging (NBI), texture and color enhanced imaging (TXI) of histologically confirmed BE and BERN were assessed by expert and non-expert endoscopists. For each video, endoscopists were asked to identify the area of BERN and decide on the biopsy spot. Videos were assessed by the AI algorithm and regions of BERN were highlighted in real-time by a transparent overlay. Finally, endoscopists were shown the AI videos and asked to either confirm or change their initial decision based on the AI support. Results Barrett-Ampel correctly identified all areas of BERN, irrespective of the imaging modality (WL, NBI, TXI), but misinterpreted two inflammatory lesions (Accuracy=75\%). Expert endoscopists had a similar performance (Accuracy=70,8\%), while non-experts had an accuracy of 58.3\%. When AI was implemented as a DSS, non-expert endoscopists improved their diagnostic accuracy to 75\%. Conclusions AI may have the potential to support non-expert endoscopists in the assessment of videos of BE and BERN. Limitations of this study include the low number of videos used. Randomized clinical trials in a real-life setting should be performed to confirm these results.}, subject = {Speiser{\"o}hrenkrankheit}, language = {en} } @article{EbigboMendelScheppachetal., author = {Ebigbo, Alanna and Mendel, Robert and Scheppach, Markus W. and Probst, Andreas and Shahidi, Neal and Prinz, Friederike and Fleischmann, Carola and R{\"o}mmele, Christoph and G{\"o}lder, Stefan Karl and Braun, Georg and Rauber, David and R{\"u}ckert, Tobias and De Souza Jr., Luis Antonio and Papa, Jo{\~a}o Paulo and Byrne, Michael F. and Palm, Christoph and Messmann, Helmut}, title = {Vessel and tissue recognition during third-space endoscopy using a deep learning algorithm}, series = {Gut}, volume = {71}, journal = {Gut}, number = {12}, publisher = {BMJ}, address = {London}, doi = {10.1136/gutjnl-2021-326470}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:898-opus4-54293}, pages = {2388 -- 2390}, abstract = {In this study, we aimed to develop an artificial intelligence clinical decision support solution to mitigate operator-dependent limitations during complex endoscopic procedures such as endoscopic submucosal dissection and peroral endoscopic myotomy, for example, bleeding and perforation.

Ziel Ziel dieser Studie ist es, den Add-on Effekt eines k{\"u}nstlichen Intelligenz (KI) Systems (Barrett-Ampel) als Entscheidungsunterst{\"u}zungssystem f{\"u}r Endoskopiker ohne Expertise bei der Untersuchung von BERN zu evaluieren. Material und Methodik Zw{\"o}lf Videos in „Weißlicht" (WL), „narrow-band imaging" (NBI) und „texture and color enhanced imaging" (TXI) von histologisch best{\"a}tigten Barrett-Metaplasien oder BERN wurden von Experten und Untersuchern ohne Barrett-Expertise evaluiert. Die Probanden wurden dazu aufgefordert in den Videos auftauchende BERN zu identifizieren und gegebenenfalls die optimale Biopsiestelle zu markieren. Unser KI-System wurde demselben Test unterzogen, wobei dieses BERN in Echtzeit segmentierte und farblich von umliegendem Epithel differenzierte. Anschließend wurden den Probanden die Videos mit zus{\"a}tzlicher KI-Unterst{\"u}tzung gezeigt. Basierend auf dieser neuen Information, wurden die Probanden zu einer Reevaluation ihrer initialen Beurteilung aufgefordert. Ergebnisse Die „Barrett-Ampel" identifizierte unabh{\"a}ngig von den verwendeten Darstellungsmodi (WL, NBI, TXI) alle BERN. Zwei entz{\"u}ndlich ver{\"a}nderte L{\"a}sionen wurden fehlinterpretiert (Genauigkeit=75\%). W{\"a}hrend Experten vergleichbare Ergebnisse erzielten (Genauigkeit=70,8\%), hatten Endoskopiker ohne Expertise bei der Beurteilung von Barrett-Metaplasien eine Genauigkeit von lediglich 58,3\%. Wurden die nicht-Experten allerdings von unserem KI-System unterst{\"u}tzt, erreichten diese eine Genauigkeit von 75\%. Zusammenfassung Unser KI-System hat das Potential als Entscheidungsunterst{\"u}tzungssystem bei der Differenzierung zwischen Barrett-Metaplasie und BERN zu fungieren und so Endoskopiker ohne entsprechende Expertise zu assistieren. Eine Limitation dieser Studie ist die niedrige Anzahl an eingeschlossenen Videos. Um die Ergebnisse dieser Studie zu best{\"a}tigen, m{\"u}ssen randomisierte kontrollierte klinische Studien durchgef{\"u}hrt werden.}, language = {de} }
