A systematic review on application of deep learning in digestive system image processing.

With the advent of the big data era, the application of artificial intelligence represented by deep learning in medicine has become a hot topic. In gastroenterology, deep learning has accomplished remarkable accomplishments in endoscopy, imageology, and pathology. Artificial intelligence has been applied to benign gastrointestinal tract lesions, early cancer, tumors, inflammatory bowel diseases, livers, pancreas, and other diseases. Computer-aided diagnosis significantly improve diagnostic accuracy and reduce physicians' workload and provide a shred of evidence for clinical diagnosis and treatment. In the near future, artificial intelligence will have high application value in the field of medicine. This paper mainly summarizes the latest research on artificial intelligence in diagnosing and treating digestive system diseases and discussing artificial intelligence's future in digestive system diseases. We sincerely hope that our work can become a stepping stone for gastroenterologists and computer experts in artificial intelligence research and facilitate the application and development of computer-aided image processing technology in gastroenterology.
