Natural Language Processing Accurately Categorizes Indications, Findings and Pathology Reports from Multicenter Colonoscopy [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Colonoscopy is used for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening. Extracting details of the colonoscopy findings from free text in electronic health records (EHRs) can be used to determine patient risk for CRC and colorectal screening strategies. We developed and evaluated the accuracy of a deep learning model framework to extract information for the clinical
