Development and multi-institutional validation of an artificial intelligence-based diagnostic system for gastric biopsy.

ABSTRACT: To overcome the increasing burden on pathologists in diagnosing gastric biopsies, we developed an artificial intelligence-based system for the pathological diagnosis of gastric biopsies (AI-G), which is expected to work well in daily clinical practice in multiple institutes. The multistage semantic segmentation for pathology (MSP) method utilizes the distribution of feature values extracted from patches of whole-slide images (WSI) like pathologists' "low-power view" information of microscopy. The training dataset included WSIs of 4511 gastric biopsy tissues from 984 patients. In tissue-level validation, MSP AI-G showed better accuracy (91.0%) than that of conventional patch-based AI-G (PB AI-G) (89.8%). Importantly, MSP AI-G unanimously achieved higher accuracy rates (0.946 ± 0.023) than P
