Abstract
Artificial intelligence is rapidly evolving and its application is increasing day-by-day in the medical field. The application of artificial intelligence is also valuable in gastrointestinal diseases, by calculating various scoring systems, evaluating radiological images, preoperative and intraoperative assistance, processing pathological slides, prognosticating, and in treatment responses. This field has a promising future and can have an impact on many management algorithms. In this minireview, we aimed to determine the basics of artificial intelligence, the role that artificial intelligence may play in gastrointestinal surgeries and malignancies, and the limitations thereof.

Global research trends of artificial intelligence applied in esophageal carcinoma: A bibliometric analysis (2000-2022) via CiteSpace and VOSviewer. Front Oncol 2022; 12:972357. [PMID: 36091151 PMCID: PMC9453500 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.972357] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/18/2022] [Accepted: 07/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/09/2022] Open
Abstract
ObjectiveUsing visual bibliometric analysis, the application and development of artificial intelligence in clinical esophageal cancer are summarized, and the research progress, hotspots, and emerging trends of artificial intelligence are elucidated.MethodsOn April 7th, 2022, articles and reviews regarding the application of AI in esophageal cancer, published between 2000 and 2022 were chosen from the Web of Science Core Collection. To conduct co-authorship, co-citation, and co-occurrence analysis of countries, institutions, authors, references, and keywords in this field, VOSviewer (version 1.6.18), CiteSpace (version 5.8.R3), Microsoft Excel 2019, R 4.2, an online bibliometric platform (http://bibliometric.com/) and an online browser plugin (https://www.altmetric.com/) were used.ResultsA total of 918 papers were included, with 23,490 citations. 5,979 authors, 39,962 co-cited authors, and 42,992 co-cited papers were identified in the study. Most publications were from China (317). In terms of the H-index (45) and citations (9925), the United States topped the list. The journal “New England Journal of Medicine” of Medicine, General & Internal (IF = 91.25) published the most studies on this topic. The University of Amsterdam had the largest number of publications among all institutions. The past 22 years of research can be broadly divided into two periods. The 2000 to 2016 research period focused on the classification, identification and comparison of esophageal cancer. Recently (2017-2022), the application of artificial intelligence lies in endoscopy, diagnosis, and precision therapy, which have become the frontiers of this field. It is expected that closely esophageal cancer clinical measures based on big data analysis and related to precision will become the research hotspot in the future.ConclusionsAn increasing number of scholars are devoted to artificial intelligence-related esophageal cancer research. The research field of artificial intelligence in esophageal cancer has entered a new stage. In the future, there is a need to continue to strengthen cooperation between countries and institutions. Improving the diagnostic accuracy of esophageal imaging, big data-based treatment and prognosis prediction through deep learning technology will be the continuing focus of research. The application of AI in esophageal cancer still has many challenges to overcome before it can be utilized.

Goyal H, Sherazi SAA, Mann R, Gandhi Z, Perisetti A, Aziz M, Chandan S, Kopel J, Tharian B, Sharma N, Thosani N. Scope of Artificial Intelligence in Gastrointestinal Oncology. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:5494. [PMID: 34771658 PMCID: PMC8582733 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13215494] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2021] [Accepted: 10/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Gastrointestinal cancers are among the leading causes of death worldwide, with over 2.8 million deaths annually. Over the last few decades, advancements in artificial intelligence technologies have led to their application in medicine. The use of artificial intelligence in endoscopic procedures is a significant breakthrough in modern medicine. Currently, the diagnosis of various gastrointestinal cancer relies on the manual interpretation of radiographic images by radiologists and various endoscopic images by endoscopists. This can lead to diagnostic variabilities as it requires concentration and clinical experience in the field. Artificial intelligence using machine or deep learning algorithms can provide automatic and accurate image analysis and thus assist in diagnosis. In the field of gastroenterology, the application of artificial intelligence can be vast from diagnosis, predicting tumor histology, polyp characterization, metastatic potential, prognosis, and treatment response. It can also provide accurate prediction models to determine the need for intervention with computer-aided diagnosis. The number of research studies on artificial intelligence in gastrointestinal cancer has been increasing rapidly over the last decade due to immense interest in the field. This review aims to review the impact, limitations, and future potentials of artificial intelligence in screening, diagnosis, tumor staging, treatment modalities, and prediction models for the prognosis of various gastrointestinal cancers.

[DOI: 10.37126/aige.v2.i4.127] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2021] [Revised: 06/05/2021] [Accepted: 07/19/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Each year, hepatocellular carcinoma is diagnosed in more than half a million people worldwide. It is the fifth most common cancer in men and the seventh most common cancer in women. Its diagnosis is currently made using imaging techniques, such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. For most cirrhotic patients, these methods are enough for diagnosis, foregoing the necessity of a liver biopsy. In order to improve outcomes and bypass obstacles, many companies and clinical centers have been trying to develop deep learning systems that could be able to diagnose and classify liver nodules in the cirrhotic liver, in which the neural networks are one of the most efficient approaches to accurately diagnose liver nodules. Despite the advances in deep learning systems for the diagnosis of imaging techniques, there are many issues that need better development in order to make such technologies more useful in daily practice.
