Description
Summary:The utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) in gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy has witnessed significant progress and promising results in recent years worldwide. From 2019 to 2023, the European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy has released multiple guidelines/consensus with recommendations on integrating AI for detecting and classifying lesions in practical endoscopy. In Vietnam, since 2019, several preliminary studies have been conducted to develop AI algorithms for GI endoscopy, focusing on lesion detection. These studies have yielded high accuracy results ranging from 86% to 92%. For upper GI endoscopy, ongoing research directions comprise image quality assessment, detection of anatomical landmarks, simulating image-enhanced endoscopy, and semi-automated tools supporting the delineation of GI lesions on endoscopic images. For lower GI endoscopy, most studies focus on developing AI algorithms for colorectal polyps’ detection and classification based on the risk of malignancy. In conclusion, the application of AI in this field represents a promising research direction, presenting challenges and opportunities for real-world implementation within the Vietnamese healthcare context.
