Abstract
An analyzing platform may obtain a first image of a liquid in a receptacle. The analyzing platform may analyze the first image to determine a first set of visual characteristics concerning the liquid. The analyzing platform may obtain a second image of a rectal sample in the liquid in the receptacle, wherein the rectal sample originated from a bowel of a subject. The analyzing platform may analyze the second image to determine a second set of visual characteristics concerning the rectal sample. The analyzing platform may determine, based on the first set of visual characteristics and the second set of visual characteristics, rectal sample information. The analyzing platform may cause one or more actions to be performed based on the rectal sample information.
