Accreditation Statement_Masterclass AI June 2021

Pdf Summary

The Masterclass: Artificial Intelligence is a virtual program offered by the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) on June 19, 2021. The course focuses on the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy, specifically in improving imaging techniques for better diagnosis of GI disorders. AI refers to the development and application of computer algorithms that can perform tasks requiring human intelligence. Machine learning (ML), which falls under AI, involves algorithms analyzing features in a separate dataset without specific programming.<br /><br />The masterclass will cover various applications of AI in GI endoscopy, including the detection and characterization of colorectal polyps, prediction of invasive cancer within polyp lesions, analysis of wireless capsule endoscopy images and videos, and localization and diagnosis of esophageal and gastric pathology. The course aims to achieve several learning objectives, such as understanding how AI technology can be applied to endoscopic imaging, comparing tools and techniques used in AI and ML, and identifying the key elements of reading and understanding AI papers.<br /><br />The target audience for this course is gastroenterologists and their practice teams who are interested in incorporating AI into their practice. This includes those in GI practice settings, related hospital-based settings, ASC GI practice relationships, and academia. The course offers up to 4.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ for physicians.<br /><br />To access the course materials and claim credit, participants must complete an online evaluation survey through the ASGE Learning Management System. The course materials include PDF files of the PowerPoint presentation slides, and the recorded session will be available within 7-10 business days. Participants are encouraged to provide feedback through the course evaluation to claim credits and obtain a certificate.<br /><br />The course organizers and faculty members have disclosed their financial relationships with commercial interests according to ASGE's policy on educational conflict of interest. ASGE strives to provide high-level scientific evidence and maintain neutrality in its educational activities. Patient privacy is also protected, and faculty are requested to de-identify patient-related material in accordance with HIPAA guidelines.<br /><br />Overall, the Masterclass: Artificial Intelligence provides gastroenterologists and their practice teams with valuable insights into incorporating AI into their practice and improving diagnostic outcomes in GI endoscopy.
