Domain Generalization for Endoscopic Image Segmentation by Disentangling Style-Content Information and SuperPixel Consistency [PDF]

2024 IEEE 37th International Symposium on Computer-Based Medical Systems (CBMS)
Frequent monitoring is necessary to stratify individuals based on their likelihood of developing gastrointestinal (GI) cancer precursors. In clinical practice, white-light imaging (WLI) and complementary modalities such as narrow-band imaging (NBI) and fluorescence imaging are used to assess risk areas.

Challenges in Implementing Endoscopic Artificial Intelligence: The Impact of Real‐World Imaging Conditions on Barrett's Neoplasia Detection

United European Gastroenterology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Endoscopic deep learning systems are often developed using high‐quality imagery obtained from expert centers. Therefore, they may underperform in community hospitals where image quality is more heterogeneous. Objective This study aimed to quantify the performance degradation of a computer aided detection system for Barrett's ...

Barrett’s esophagus: novel strategies for screening and surveillance

Therapeutic Advances in Chronic Disease, 2019
Barrett’s esophagus is the precursor lesion for esophageal adenocarcinoma. Screening and surveillance of Barrett’s esophagus are undertaken with the goal of earlier detection and lowering the mortality from esophageal adenocarcinoma.

Helicobacter pylori infection reduces the risk of Barrett's esophagus: A meta‐analysis and systematic review

Helicobacter, 2018
The prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection (HPI) has been decreasing in developed countries, with an increasing prevalence of Barrett's esophagus (BE) and esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) at the same time. The aim of our meta‐analysis was to quantify

Peristaltic regimes in esophageal transport [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
A FLIP device gives cross-sectional area along the length of the esophagus and one pressure measurement, both as a function of time. Deducing mechanical properties of the esophagus including wall material properties, contraction strength, and wall relaxation from these data is a challenging inverse problem.
