Abstract

An endoscopy video feature enhancement platform (EVFEP) is connected to the output of any type endoscope system, and inputs and captures the output video. The video is visually augmented live with indicators of possible polyp detection and localization, polyp attributes, and procedure metrics, based on the collective learning of the output results of many different types of endoscopy systems on a large scale. An artificial intelligence model is trained on confirmed polyp detection previously determined by this and other EVFEP devices used with many different types of endoscope systems on a large scale. Augmented video, images and automatically generated short video clips of key procedure segments are passed to a reporting system, and supplemented with meta data.
