AuthorYearData sourcePurposeResults

Sutton et al.2022851 images of UC patientsTo differentiate UC from other intestinal diseases and to evaluate the severity of UC endoscopic ulcersThe accuracy (87.50%) and area under the curve (AUC, 0.90)
Takenaka et al.202040,758 images of endoscopies and 6,885 biopsy outcomes of 2012 UC patientsTo create a deep neural network system for analyzing endoscopic images of UC patientsThe remission in endoscopy with 90.1% accuracy (95% and 89.2–90.9%)
Najarian et al.2021Video of the clinical trial set with 51 high resolution and 264 testsTo trial a fully automated video system for analyzing and grading endoscopic disease in UCAutomated Mayo endoscopic subscores (MES) scoring of clinical trial videos correctly differentiated between remission and active disease in 83.7% of cases
Gottlieb et al.2021795 full-length endoscopy videos of 249 patientsTo verify a deep learning, algorithm can be trained to predict levels of UC severity from full-length endoscopy videos(0.787–0.901) for endoscopic Mayo Score (eMS) and 0.855 (95% confidence interval, 0.80–0.91) for UCEIS
Bossuyt et al.202029 consecutive patients with UC and 6 healthy controlsTo develop an operator- independent computer-based tool to determine UC activity based on endoscopic imagesRD correlated with Robarts histological index (RHI) (, ), MES (, ), and UC endoscopic index of severity scores (, )
