Clinical Research on a Novel Deep-learning Based System in Mediastinal Endoscopic Ultrasound Scanning

Clinical Research on Navigation and Quality Control System of Mediastinal Ultrasound Endoscopy Based on Deep Learning

The goal of this clinical trial is to develop and verify the auxiliary role of the artificial intelligence system in mediastinal ultrasound endoscopic scanning. The main questions it aims to answer are as follows: 1.The comparison of the image recognition accuracy between the artificial intelligence system and the ultrasound endoscopist; 2. Whether the artificial intelligence system can improve the integrity and efficiency of the mediastinum scanning for the ultrasound endoscopist. Participants will undergo mediastinal EUS with or without the assistance of the artificial intelligence system.

In this study, a total of 200 cases of mediastinal endoscopic ultrasound scanning videos will be collected. First of all, an artificial intelligence system based on deep learning for the navigation and quality control of mediastinal endoscopic ultrasonography will be established. Secondly, the artificial intelligence system will be used to identify the site and anatomical structure of the mediastinal ultrasound endoscope, and the results of the artificial intelligence system's station recognition will be compared with the results of the endoscopist's station recognition. Finally, the completeness of standard sites and scanning time of endoscopic-assisted and non-assisted AI systems were compared.

Inclusion Criteria:

• 1. Age ≥18 years old, <80 years old 2.Patients who need endoscopic ultrasonography; 3. Agree to participate in this study and sign the informed consent form.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Subjects who meet any of the following criteria cannot be selected for this trial:

First. The patient's physical condition does not meet the requirements of conventional endoscopic ultrasonography:

1. Poor physical condition, including hemoglobin ≤8.0g/dl, severe cardiopulmonary insufficiency, etc.
2. Anesthesia assessment failed
3. Pregnancy or breastfeeding
4. In the acute stage of chemical and corrosive injury, it is very easy to cause perforation

6. Heart disease patients with right-to-left shunt, patients with severe pulmonary hypertension (pulmonary artery pressure> 90mmHg),patients with uncontrolled systemic hypertension and patients with adult respiratory distress syndrome.

Second. Disagree to participate in this study.

Third. There are other problems that do not meet the requirements of this research or that affect the results of the research:

1. Mediastinal lesions have previously undergone surgery or radiotherapy and chemotherapy;
2. Mental illness, drug addiction, inability to express themselves or other diseases that may affect follow-up.
