Colon Shape Estimation Method for Colonoscope Tracking using Recurrent Neural Networks [PDF]
Published in Proceedings of MICCAI 2018, LNCS 11073, pp 176-184, 2020 We propose an estimation method using a recurrent neural network (RNN) of the colon's shape where deformation was occurred by a colonoscope insertion. Colonoscope tracking or a navigation system that navigates physician to polyp positions is needed to reduce such complications as colon perforation. Previous tracking methods caused large tracking errors
