In the researchers' words

Barrett's oesophagus is a condition in which the area between the oesophagus and stomach no longer closes, allowing acidic contents of the stomach to enter the oesophagus and damage the lining. The project aims to assist clinicians by offering informed biopsy process, in which the system presents the operator with clinical outcomes of patients with visually similar GI tracts. The project goal is to assess the use of artificial intelligence-based similarity detection systems to better inform biopsy placement, increasing the reliability of bi-yearly inspections.
