Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Seattle protocol biopsies for Barrett's Esophagus (BE) surveillance are labour intensive with low compliance. Dysplasia detection rates vary, leading to missed lesions. This can potentially be offset with computer aided detection. We have developed convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to identify areas of dysplasia and where to target biopsy. METHODS: 119 Videos were collected in high-definition white light and optical chromoendoscopy with i-scan (Pentax Hoya, Japan) imaging in patients with dysplastic and non-dysplastic BE (NDBE). We trained an indirectly supervised CNN to classify images as dysplastic/non-dysplastic using whole video annotations to minimise selection bias and maximise accuracy. The CNN was trained using 148,936 video frames (31 dysplastic patients, 31 NDBE, two normal esophagus), validated on 25,161 images from 11 patient videos and tested on 264 iscan-1 images from 28 dysplastic and 16 NDBE patients which included expert delineations. To localise targeted biopsies/delineations, a second directly supervised CNN was generated based on expert delineations of 94 dysplastic images from 30 patients. This was tested on 86 i-scan one images from 28 dysplastic patients. FINDINGS: The indirectly supervised CNN achieved a per image sensitivity in the test set of 91%, specificity 79%, area under receiver operator curve of 93% to detect dysplasia. Per-lesion sensitivity was 100%. Mean assessment speed was 48 frames per second (fps). 97% of targeted biopsy predictions matched expert and histological assessment at 56 fps. The artificial intelligence system performed better than six endoscopists. INTERPRETATION: Our CNNs classify and localise dysplastic Barrett's Esophagus potentially supporting endoscopists during surveillance.
