Automated evaluation of colon capsule endoscopic severity of ulcerative colitis using ResNet50.

ABSTRACT: Capsule endoscopy has been widely used as a non-invasive diagnostic tool for small or large intestinal lesions. In recent years, automated lesion detection systems using machine learning have been devised. This study aimed to develop an automated system for capsule endoscopic severity in patients with ulcerative colitis along the entire length of the colon using ResNet50. Capsule endoscopy videos from patients with ulcerative colitis were collected prospectively. Each single examination video file was partitioned into four segments: the cecum and ascending colon, transverse colon, descending and sigmoid colon, and rectum. Fifty still pictures (576 × 576 pixels) were extracted from each partitioned video. A patch (128 × 128 pixels) was trimmed from the still picture at every 32-pixel-stride
