Abstract:
The gap between endoscopy and histology is getting closer with the introduction of sophisticated endoscopic technologies. Furthermore, unprecedented advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have enabled objective assessment of endoscopy and digital pathology, providing accurate, consistent, and reproducible evaluations of endoscopic appearance and histologic activity. These advancements result in improved disease management by predicting treatment response and long-term outcomes. AI will also support endoscopy in raising the standard of clinical trial study design by facilitating patient recruitment and improving the validity of endoscopic readings and endoscopy quality, thus overcoming the subjective variability in scoring. Accordingly, AI will be an ideal adjunct tool for enhancing, complementing, and improving our understanding of ulcerative colitis course. This review explores promising AI applications enabled by endoscopy and histology techniques. We further discuss future directions, envisioning a bright future where AI technology extends the frontiers beyond human limits and boundaries.
