Abstract
One of the leading causes of cancer deaths is esophageal cancer (EC) because identifying it in early stage is challenging. Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) could detect the early stages of EC have been developed in recent years. Therefore, in this study, complete meta-analysis of selected studies that only uses hyperspectral imaging to detect EC is evaluated in terms of their diagnostic test accuracy (DTA). Eight studies are chosen based on the Quadas-2 tool results for systematic DTA analysis, and each of the methods developed in these studies is classified based on the nationality of the data, artificial intelligence, the type of image, the type of cancer detected, and the year of publishing. Deeks' funnel plot, forest plot, and accuracy charts were made. The methods studied in these articles show the automatic diagnosis of EC has a high accuracy, but external validation, which is a prerequisite for real-time clinical applications, is lacking.
