Applications of Artificial Intelligence for the Diagnosis of Gastrointestinal Diseases.
2021
The development of convolutional neural networks has achieved impressive advances of machine learning in recent years, leading to an increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the field of gastrointestinal (GI) diseases. AI networks have been trained to differentiate benign from malignant lesions, analyze endoscopic and radiological GI images, and assess histological diagnoses, obtaining excellent results and high overall diagnostic accuracy. Nevertheless, there data are lacking on side effects of AI in the gastroenterology field, and high-quality studies comparing the performance of AI networks to health care professionals are still limited. Thus, large, controlled trials in real-time clinical settings are warranted to assess the role of AI in daily clinical practice. This narrative review gives an overview of some of the most relevant potential applications of AI for gastrointestinal diseases, highlighting advantages and main limitations and providing considerations for future development.
