Abstract

ObjectiveA Colon Cleanliness Rating Algorithm (CCRA) based on colonoscopy image analysis is proposed in this paper, in order to solve the problem that the results of Colon Cleanliness (or Bowel Preparation Quality) rating caused by manual inspection are inconsistent. MethodsFirstly, CCRA intercepts images from the colonoscopy video. Secondly, each colonoscopy image's stool area is segmented by U-Net to obtain the 2-classification segmentation results. Finally, the colon cleanliness is obtained by comparing the average area of the stool area with the standard proportion. ResultsAfter testing, the pixel accuracy of the U-Net model is 97.02 %, IoU is 83.67 %, accuracy is 92.17 %, recall is 90.21 %, F1-Score is 90.95 %. The accuracy of CCRA is 92.45 %–99.275 % ConclusionThe experimental results show that the CCRA proposed in this paper can quickly and accurately output the colon cleanliness rating of patients without manpower.
