Abstract

Background: The gastroscopic examination is a preferred method for the detection of upper gastrointestinal lesions. However, gastroscopic examination has high requirements for doctors, especially for the strict position and quantity of the archived images. These requirements are challenging for the education and training of junior doctors.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to use deep learning to develop automatic position recognition technology for gastroscopic examination.

Methods: A total of 17182 gastroscopic images in eight anatomical position categories are collected. Convolutional neural network model MogaNet is used to identify all the anatomical positions of the stomach for gastroscopic examination The performance of four models is evaluated by sensitivity, precision, and F1 score.

Results: The average sensitivity of the method proposed is 0.963, which is 0.074, 0.066 and 0.065 higher than ResNet, GoogleNet and SqueezeNet, respectively. The average precision of the method proposed is 0.964, which is 0.072, 0.067 and 0.068 higher than ResNet, GoogleNet, and SqueezeNet, respectively. And the average F1-Score of the method proposed is 0.964, which is 0.074, 0.067 and 0.067 higher than ResNet, GoogleNet, and SqueezeNet, respectively. The results of the t-test show that the method proposed is significantly different from other methods (p< 0.05).

Conclusion: The method proposed exhibits the best performance for anatomical positions recognition. And the method proposed can help junior doctors meet the requirements of completeness of gastroscopic examination and the number and position of archived images quickly.

Keywords: Gastroscopic image; anatomical position recognition; convolutional neural network.
