Aims The advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) made it possible to apply AI into medical fields. The aim of this study was to investigate an AI-assisted classification for ERCP through convolutional neural network (CNN) using documented endoscopic images.
Methods We used deep convolutional neural networks pre-trained on the ImageNet dataset such as ResNet18, ResNet50, and VGG19 and fine-tuned them on dataset. We performed 5-fold cross-validation on our dataset and formed subtasks, four-class classification and binary classification, according to the cannulation difficulty.
Results ERCP Data of 456 patients were included in the analysis. The averaged training results of 5-fold cross-validation for the detection task were as follows: mean intersection over union (mIoU) (0.544 ± 0.021), mean absolute error (MAE) (6.360 ± 0.522), and root mean squared error (10.009 ± 1.390). Fig. 1 shows the success plot of detection task. Each point on the plot shows the mean success rates of entire folds for each threshold. Fig. 2 shows the comparison of the estimated bounding box and the ground truth bounding box on a sample image. In the difficulty prediction task, we achieved the accuracy of 69.1 % on the four-class classification and that of 67.1 % on the binary classification.
Conclusions AI-assisted system mostly differentiated the ampulla and has a potential to improve the quality of ERCP.
