BACKGROUND AND AIM: Endoscopic differentiation between malignant and benign gastric ulcers (GU) affects further evaluation and prognosis. The aim of our study was to evaluate a deep learning algorithm for discrimination between benign and malignant GU in a database of endoscopic ulcer images.
METHODS: We retrospectively collected consecutive upper gastrointestinal endoscopy images of GU performed between 2011 and 2019 at the Sheba Medical Center. All ulcers had a corresponding histopathology result of either benign peptic ulcer or gastric adenocarcinoma. A convolutional neural network (CNN) was trained to classify the images into either benign or malignant. Endoscopies from 2011 to 2017 were used for training (2011-2015) and validation (2016-2017). Hyper-parameters, image augmentation and pre-training on Google images obtained images were evaluated on the validation data. Held-out data from 2018 to 2019 was used for testing the final model.
RESULTS: Overall, the Sheba dataset included 1978 GU images; 1894 images from benign GU and 84 images of malignant ulcers. The final CNN model showed an AUC 0.91 (95% CI 0.85-0.96) for detecting malignant ulcers. For cut-off probability 0.5, the network showed a sensitivity of 92% and specificity of 75% for malignant ulcers.
CONCLUSION: Our study displays the applicability of a CNN model for automated evaluation of gastric ulcers images for malignant potential. Following further research, the algorithm may improve accuracy of differentiating benign from malignant ulcers during endoscopies and assist in patients' stratification, allowing accelerated patients management and individualized approach towards surveillance endoscopy.
