Polyp size measurements by endoscopists during colonoscopy are notoriously inaccurate, with both over-measurements and under-measurements. Computerized assessments of polyp size are promising for more accurate measurement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In an evaluation of endoscopist classification of phantom polyps of known size in a pig model, endoscopists and a computer model categorized polyps as \u22645 mm or >5 mm. The computer-based sizing system had an average diagnostic accuracy of 85.2%, compared with 59.5% by the endoscopists. For lesions >5 mm, the sizing accuracy was 87.5% for the computer versus 42.3% for the endoscopists.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
