Endoscopy Live: GERD & Barrett's Esophagus: The Journey Continues | December 2021-Procedure 4: AI

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, Bonnie Conda from Baylor, Dallas introduces the third session on Barrett's esophagus diagnosis and neoplasia. Prateek and Moen will be presenting on the topic, while Linda and Venkata will guide and coordinate the session. Prateek demonstrates an AI system called Wise Vision, which detects lesions in Barrett's esophagus. The system uses a reverse green L as a sign of detection and a heat map to show the location of the lesion. Prateek showcases several video cases, including a Barrett's lesion, a splat lesion, and a subtle lesion only seen on retroflexion. He explains that the AI system detects neoplasia within Barrett's rather than Barrett's itself. The system analyzes pixels, pixel densities, texture, color, and contrast to detect lesions. The AI system operates at a speed of five milliseconds per frame, faster than the human eye. Prateek demonstrates the AI system's integration into the endoscopy screen setup and explains how endoscopists can use it alongside the main screen. The video concludes with a discussion on different imaging modalities, their use in detecting neoplastic areas in Barrett's esophagus, and the approach to incorporating AI into the examination process.
