Rapid Endoscopic Diagnosis of Benign Ulcerative Colorectal Diseases with an Artificial Intelligence Contextual Framework

Benign ulcerative colorectal diseases (UCDs) such as ulcerative colitis (UC), Crohn ’s disease (CD), ischemic colitis (IC) and intestinal tuberculosis (ITB) share similar phenotypes with different etiologies and treatment strategies. To accurately diagnose closely-related diseases like UCDs, we hypothesize that contextual learning is critical in enhancing the ability of the artif icial intelligence models to differentiate the subtle differences in lesions amidst the vastly divergent spatial contexts.
