ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AND AIMS:
Celiac disease with its endoscopic manifestation of villous atrophy (VA) is underdiagnosed worldwide. The application of artificial intelligence (AI) for the macroscopic detection of VA at routine EGD may improve diagnostic performance.METHODS:
A dataset of 858 endoscopic images of 182 patients with VA and 846 images from 323 patients with normal duodenal mucosa was collected and used to train a ResNet18 deep learning model to detect VA. An external dataset was used to test the algorithm, in addition to 6 fellows and 4 board-certified gastroenterologists. Fellows could consult the AI algorithm's result during the test. From their consultation distribution, a stratification of test images into "easy" and "difficult" was performed and used for classified performance measurement.RESULTS:
External validation of the AI algorithm yielded values of 90%, 76%, and 84% for sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy, respectively. Fellows scored corresponding values of 63%, 72%, and 67% and experts scored 72%, 69%, and 71%, respectively. AI consultation significantly improved all trainee performance statistics. Although fellows and experts showed significantly lower performance for difficult images, the performance of the AI algorithm was stable.CONCLUSIONS:
In this study, an AI algorithm outperformed endoscopy fellows and experts in the detection of VA on endoscopic still images. AI decision support significantly improved the performance of nonexpert endoscopists. The stable performance on difficult images suggests a further positive add-on effect in challenging cases.
