Connection Between Tongue Signs and Bile Reflux Analysed With Artificial Intelligence

Analysing the Link Between Tongue Signs and Bile Reflux by Artificial Intelligence

By introducing artificial intelligence into Chinese medicine tongue diagnosis, we collated and collected tongue images, anxiety and depression scales and gastroscopy reports, mined and analysed the correlation between tongue images and bile reflux and anxiety and depression and constructed a prediction model to analyse the possibility of predicting bile reflux and anxiety and depression in patients based on tongue images.

Firstly, after the patient signs the informed consent form, the researcher will collect pictures of the patient's tongue and obtain basic information about the patient.

Second, the patients are scored on the Anxiety and Depression Scale.

Thirdly, after the patient undergoes gastroscopy, the patient's gastroscopy report is obtained.

Finally, the patient's tongue image, information and gastroscopy report are matched to construct an artificial intelligence model of tongue image and bile reflux and anxiety and depression, and the quality of the model is assessed.
