Abstract In recent years, the number of patients with colon disease has increased significantly. Colon polyps are the precursor lesions of colon cancer. If not diagnosed in time, they can easily develop into colon cancer, posing a serious threat to patients’ lives and health. A colonoscopy is an important means of detecting colon polyps. However, in polyp imaging, due to the large differences and diverse types of polyps in size, shape, color, etc., traditional detection methods face the problem of high false positive rates, which creates problems for doctors during the diagnosis process. In order to… More >

Abstract The major mortality factor relevant to the intestinal tract is the growth of tumorous cells (polyps) in various parts. More specifically, colonic polyps have a high rate and are recognized as a precursor of colon cancer growth. Endoscopy is the conventional technique for detecting colon polyps, and considerable research has proved that automated diagnosis of image regions that might have polyps within the colon might be used to help experts for decreasing the polyp miss rate. The automated diagnosis of polyps in a computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) method is implemented using statistical analysis. Nowadays, Deep Learning,… More >

Abstract The incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) in China has increased in recent years. The mortality rate of CRC has become one of the highest among all cancers; CRC increasingly affects the health and quality of people’s lives. However, due to the insufficiency of medical resources in China, the workload on medical doctors has further increased. In the past few decades, the adult CRC mortality and morbidity rate dropped sharply, mainly because of CRC screening and removal of adenomatous polyps. However, due to the differences in polyp itself and the skills of endoscopists, the detection rate… More >
