  • 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.

  • Patent number: 11684241
    Abstract: A system and methods are provided in which an artificial intelligence inference module identifies targeted information in large-scale unlabeled data, wherein the artificial intelligence inference module autonomously learns hierarchical representations from large-scale unlabeled data and continually self-improves from self-labeled data points using a teacher model trained to detect known targets from combined inputs of a small hand labeled curated dataset prepared by a domain expert together with self-generated intermediate and global context features derived from the unlabeled dataset by unsupervised and self-supervised processes. The trained teacher model processes further unlabeled data to self-generate new weakly-supervised training samples that are self-refined and self-corrected, without human supervision, and then used as inputs to a noisy student model trained in a semi-supervised learning process on a combination of the teacher model training set and new weakly-supervised training samples.

  • Patent number: 11423318
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for aggregating features in multiple video frames to enhance tissue abnormality detection algorithms, wherein a first detection algorithm identifies an abnormality and aggregates adjacent video frames to create a more complete image for analysis by an artificial intelligence detection algorithm, the aggregation occurring in real time as the medical procedure is being performed.
