Demystifying the Black Box: Where AI meets GI (On-Demand)

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video is a recording of a webinar titled "Demystifying the Black Box: Where AI Meets GI" presented by the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE). The webinar discusses the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine, specifically in the field of gastroenterology, focusing on emerging technologies in upper and lower GI endoscopy. <br /><br />The first presentation by Dr. Seth Gross discusses AI's ability to classify and localize abnormalities in the gastrointestinal tract, using examples of AI systems identifying abnormal areas in Barrett's esophagus and squamous cell dysplasia. <br /><br />The second presentation by Dr. Prateek Sharma explores AI's role in colonoscopy, highlighting its potential to improve speed, expand access to services, and deliver consistent diagnoses. He discusses the use of AI in polyp detection, characterization, and predicting invasion in polyps. <br /><br />The third presentation by Dr. Robert Adzi focuses on AI's application in the esophagus from a pathology perspective. He introduces the Watts Diagnostic Platform, which combines wide-area tissue sampling with a 3D imaging analysis system and AI/machine learning to improve diagnostic accuracy in Barrett's esophagus. <br /><br />Overall, the webinar provides insights into how AI is being used to improve diagnostics and outcomes in gastrointestinal endoscopy, specifically in the detection of dysplasia in the esophagus using the Watts brush and AI-driven 3D imaging analysis.
