  • Publication number: 20230263367
    Abstract: Systems and methods for improving endoscopy procedures are described that provide not only a conventional real time image of the view obtained by an endoscope, but in addition, a near real time 3D model and/or a 2D flattened image of an interior surface of an organ, which model and image may be processed using AI software to highlight potential tissue abnormalities for closer examination and/or biopsy during the procedure. A navigation module interacts with other system outputs to further assist the endoscopist with navigational indicia, e.g., landmarks and/or directional arrows, that enhance the endoscopists' spatial orientation, and/or may provide navigational guidance to the endoscopist to assist manipulation of the endoscope.

  • Publication number: 20230210348
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for delivering consistent high quality, cost efficient results in fixed or mobile endoscopy facilities, without requiring the continuous real-time involvement of a fellowship trained gastroenterologist, by integrating patient specific information into decision support systems and AI/machine learning systems employed during the planning and examination phases of the endoscopy procedure.

  • Patent number: 11694114
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for real-time deployment of machine learning networks. One of the operations is performed by the system receiving video data from a video image capturing device. The received video data is converted into multiple video frames. These video frames are encoded into a particular color space format. The system renders a first display output depicting imagery from the multiple encoded video frames. The system performs an inference on the video frames using a machine learning network in order to determine the occurrence of one or more objects in the video frames. The system renders a second display output depicting graphical information corresponding to the determined one or more objects from the multiple encoded video frames. The system then generates a composite display output including the imagery of the first display output overlaid with the graphical information of the second display output.
