High performance in risk stratification of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms by confocal laser endomicroscopy image analysis with convolutional neural networks (with video)

EUS-guided needle-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (EUS-nCLE) can differentiate high-grade dysplasia/adenocarcinoma (HGD-Ca) in intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) but requires manual interpretation. We sought to derive predictive computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) and artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to facilitate accurate diagnosis and risk stratification of IPMNs.A post hoc analysis of a single-center prospective study...
