Performance of Capsule Endoscopy and Cross-Sectional Techniques in Detecting Small Bowel Lesions in Patients with Crohn’s Disease

ABSTRACT: Abstract

Background

Crohn’s disease (CD) can be classified according to endoscopic and cross-sectional imaging characteristics. Information regarding disease extent and phenotype may be provided by advanced endoscopic and imaging techniques. In this study, we compare the ability of capsule endoscopy (CE) and cross-sectional imaging techniques (CST) (MRE/Computer Tomography Enteroscopy [CTE]) in detecting small bowel (SB) lesions.

Methods

We retrospectively analyzed 102 patients with a diagnosis of CD who underwent both CE and CST. Only patients with at least a 12-month follow-up after CE were included.

Results

Sensitivity and specificity for the detection of SB lesions were, respectively, 100% and 83.3% for CE, 55.1% and 80% for CTE, and 60% and 82.3% for MRE. CE detected proximal CD lesions in 73% of patients, whereas MRE and CTE detected proximal lesions in 41% and 16% of patients, respectively (P < 0.001). Positive findings on CE led to management changes in all patients, in a median follow-up period of 58.7 months. During the follow-up period, 26.5% of patients underwent surgery. Multivariate analysis revealed that moderate-to-severe disease at CE was independently correlated with surgery (P = 0.03).

Conclusions

CE has a superior sensitivity for detecting CD lesions in the proximal and medium SB compared with CST. In the terminal ileum, MRE and CTE displayed similar performance to CE.

Capsule Endoscopy Complements Magnetic Resonance Enterography and Endoscopy in Evaluating Small Bowel Crohn's Disease.

Project description:AimsWireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) and magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) are increasingly utilized to evaluate the small bowel (SB) in Crohn's disease (CD). The primary aims were to compare the ability of WCE and MRE to detect SB inflammation in children with newly diagnosed CD, and in the terminal ileum (TI) to compare them to ileo-colonoscopy. Secondary aims were to compare diagnostic accuracy of WCE and MRE and changes in Paris classification after each study.MethodsPatients (10 to 17 years of age) requiring ileo-colonoscopy for suspected CD were invited to participate. Only patients with endoscopic/histologic evidence of CD underwent MRE and WCE. SB inflammation and extent were documented and comparative analyses performed.ResultsOf 38 initially recruited subjects, 20 completed the study. WCE and MRE were similarly sensitive in identifying active TI inflammation (16 [80%] versus 12 [60%]) and any SB inflammation (17 [85%] versus 16 [80%]). However, WCE detected more extensive SB disease than MRE with active inflammation throughout the SB in 15 [75%] versus 1 [5%] patient (P < 0.001). Moreover, WCE was more likely to detect proximal SB disease (jejunum and ileum) compared to MRE (85% versus 50%, P = 0.04). Overall, the Paris classification changed in 65% and 85% of patients following MRE and WCE, respectively.ConclusionsWCE is as sensitive as MRE for identifying active TI inflammation, but appears more sensitive in identifying more proximal SB inflammation. In the absence of concern regarding stricturing or extra-luminal disease WCE can be considered for the evaluation of suspected SB CD.

Comparison of Capsule Endoscopy and Magnetic Resonance Enterography for the Assessment of Small Bowel Lesions in Crohn's Disease.

Project description:Background and aimsDiagnostic yield of Small Bowel Capsule Endoscopy (SBCE) for the assessment of small bowel (SB) lesions is higher than radiologic imaging techniques. However, magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) data are scarce and inconclusive. Colon Capsule Endoscopy (CCE) is a new capsule modality. The primary aim of our study was to compare MRE and capsule endoscopy (CE) for the assessment of Crohn's disease (CD). The secondary objectives were to compare the diagnostic accuracy of both CE modalities and changes in Montreal classification after each examination.MethodsWe included 47 patients with established (n = 32) or suspected CD (n = 15). MRE was performed first to rule out strictures. In patients with a suspected stricture by MRE, an Agile Patency Capsule was performed. SB disease activity was measured by MaRIA score (MRE) and Lewis Index (CE).ResultsSB lesions were found in 36 of47 patients with CE and in 21 of47 patients with MRE (76.6% vs 44.7%, P = 0.001). Jejunal inflammation was detected by CE in 31.9% of patients and by MRE in 6.4% of patients (15/47 vs 3/47; P = 0.03); lesions in ileum were detected in 57.4% of patients by CE, and in 21.3% of patients by MRE (27/ 47 vs 10/ 47; P = 0.04). Finally, in terminal ileum, CE showed lesions in 68.1% (32/47) of patients, whereas MRE detected lesions in 38.3% (18/ 47 patients), (P = 0.001). The original Montreal classification was changed in 53.1% of patients (25/ 47) based on CE findings and in 12.7% of patients (6/47) based on MRE findings (P < 0.05).ConclusionsIn our cohort CE was significantly superior to MRE for detecting SB lesions, mainly superficial and proximal lesions. CE is useful for a appropriate patients' classification according to Montreal classification.

3D reconstruction of small bowel lesions using stereo camera-based capsule endoscopy.

Project description:Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of capsule endoscopic images has been attempted for a long time to obtain more information on small bowel structures. Due to the limited hardware resources of capsule size and battery capacity, software approaches have been studied but have mainly exhibited inherent limitations. Recently, stereo camera-based capsule endoscopy, which can perform hardware-enabled 3D reconstruction, has been developed. We aimed to evaluate the feasibility of newly developed 3D capsule endoscopy in clinical practice. This study was a prospective, single-arm, feasibility study conducted at two university-affiliated hospitals in South Korea. Small bowel evaluation was performed using a newly developed 3D capsule endoscope for patients with obscure gastrointestinal bleeding, suspected or established Crohn's disease, small bowel tumors, and abdominal pain of unknown origin. We assessed the technical limitations, performance, and safety of the new capsule endoscope. Thirty-one patients (20 men and 11 women; mean age: 44.5 years) were enrolled. There was no technical defect preventing adequate visualization of the small bowel. The overall completion rate was 77.4%, the detection rate was 64.5%, and there was no capsule retention. All capsule endoscopic procedures were completed uneventfully. In conclusion, newly developed 3D capsule endoscopy was safe and feasible, showing similar performance as conventional capsule endoscopy. Newly added features of 3D reconstruction and size measurement are expected to be useful in the characterization of subepithelial tumours.

Spatiotemporal analysis of small bowel capsule endoscopy videos for outcomes prediction in Crohn's disease.

Project description:BackgroundDeep learning techniques can accurately detect and grade inflammatory findings on images from capsule endoscopy (CE) in Crohn's disease (CD). However, the predictive utility of deep learning of CE in CD for disease outcomes has not been examined.ObjectivesWe aimed to develop a deep learning model that can predict the need for biological therapy based on complete CE videos of newly-diagnosed CD patients.DesignThis was a retrospective cohort study. The study cohort included treatment-naïve CD patients that have performed CE (SB3, Medtronic) within 6 months of diagnosis. Complete small bowel videos were extracted using the RAPID Reader software.MethodsCE videos were scored using the Lewis score (LS). Clinical, endoscopic, and laboratory data were extracted from electronic medical records. Machine learning analysis was performed using the TimeSformer computer vision algorithm developed to capture spatiotemporal characteristics for video analysis.ResultsThe patient cohort included 101 patients. The median duration of follow-up was 902 (354-1626) days. Biological therapy was initiated by 37 (36.6%) out of 101 patients. TimeSformer algorithm achieved training and testing accuracy of 82% and 81%, respectively, with an Area under the ROC Curve (AUC) of 0.86 to predict the need for biological therapy. In comparison, the AUC for LS was 0.70 and for fecal calprotectin 0.74.ConclusionSpatiotemporal analysis of complete CE videos of newly-diagnosed CD patients achieved accurate prediction of the need for biological therapy. The accuracy was superior to that of the human reader index or fecal calprotectin. Following future validation studies, this approach will allow for fast and accurate personalization of treatment decisions in CD.

A deep learning framework for autonomous detection and classification of Crohn's disease lesions in the small bowel and colon with capsule endoscopy.

Project description:Background and study aims Small bowel ulcerations are efficiently detected with deep learning techniques, whereas the ability to diagnose Crohn's disease (CD) in the colon with it is unknown. This study examined the ability of a deep learning framework to detect CD lesions with pan-enteric capsule endoscopy (CE) and classify lesions of different severity. Patients and methods CEs from patients with suspected or known CD were included in the analysis. Two experienced gastroenterologists classified anonymized images into normal mucosa, non-ulcerated inflammation, aphthous ulceration, ulcer, or fissure/extensive ulceration. An automated framework incorporating multiple ResNet-50 architectures was trained. To improve its robustness and ability to characterize lesions, image processing methods focused on texture enhancement were employed. Results A total of 7744 images from 38 patients with CD were collected (small bowel 4972, colon 2772) of which 2748 contained at least one ulceration (small bowel 1857, colon 891). With a patient-dependent split of images for training, validation, and testing, ulcerations were diagnosed with a sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy of 95.7 % (CI 93.4-97.4), 99.8 % (CI 99.2-100), and 98.4 % (CI 97.6-99.0), respectively. The diagnostic accuracy was 98.5 % (CI 97.5-99.2) for the small bowel and 98.1 % (CI 96.3-99.2) for the colon. Ulcerations of different severities were classified with substantial agreement (κ = 0.72). Conclusions Our proposed framework is in excellent agreement with the clinical standard, and diagnostic accuracies are equally high for the small bowel and colon. Deep learning approaches have a great potential to help clinicians detect, localize, and determine the severity of CD with pan-enteric CE.

Quality Indicators for Small Bowel Capsule Endoscopy.

Project description:Capsule endoscopy (CE) enables evaluation of the entire mucosal surface of the small bowel (SB), which is one of the most important steps for evaluating obscure gastrointestinal bleeding. Although the diagnostic yield of SB CE depends on many clinical factors, there are no reports on quality indicators. Thus, the Korean Gut Image Study Group (KGISG) publishes an article titled, "Quality Indicators for Small Bowel Capsule Endoscopy" under approval from the Korean Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (KSGE). Herein, we initially identified process quality indicators, while the structural and outcome indicators are reserved until sufficient clinical data are accumulated. We believe that outcomes of SB CE can be improved by trying to meet our proposed quality indicators.

Predicting Therapeutic Intervention for Patients with Quiescent Crohn's Disease Using the Small Bowel Capsule Endoscopy Score.

Project description:IntroductionSmall bowel (SB) capsule endoscopy (SBCE) is a sensitive modality for screening the entire SB of patients with Crohn's disease (CD); however, the prognostic impact of the results is unclear. We evaluated the ability of the SBCE score to predict therapeutic intervention for patients with CD and SB lesions without clinical symptoms as well as negative C-reactive protein (CRP) levels.MethodsFifty-six patients who underwent a patency evaluation and had a CD activity index (CDAI) score <150 mg/dL and CRP level <0.5 mg/dL were included. Twenty-one and 35 patients had CD classified as Montreal classifications L1 and L3, respectively. The initial SBCE scores were subsequently grouped according to the presence or absence of intervention based on cutoff values. We examined whether the scores could predict the need for therapeutic intervention at 1 year, 2 years, and 5 years. The CD activity in capsule endoscopy (CDACE) score was used as the SBCE score.ResultsThe median observation period was 1,326 days. Twenty-one patients received therapeutic intervention. There were significant differences between patients with and without treatment intervention according to the CDACE cutoff value of 420 at 1 year, 2 years, and 5 years. Significant differences between patients with Montreal classification L1 with and without intervention were observed at 1 year and 2 years. The CDACE score was moderately and strongly correlated with the Lewis score and capsule endoscopy CDAI score, respectively (Spearman rank correlation coefficient: ρ = 0.6462 and ρ = 0.9199, respectively; p < 0.0001).ConclusionA CDACE score ≥420 is predictive of intervention after 1 year for patients with CD, a CDAI score <150, and a CRP level <0.5 mg/dL. A larger study with a prospective design is necessary to validate our findings.

What defines quality in small bowel capsule endoscopy.

Project description:Small bowel capsule endoscopy is considered a first-line diagnostic tool for the investigation of small bowel diseases. Gastroenterological and endoscopic societies have proposed and established measures known as quality indicators, quality measures or performance measures for the majority of endoscopic procedures, in order to ensure competence, healthcare quality and define areas requiring improvement. However, there is a paucity of publications describing small bowel capsule endoscopy quality indicators. Hereby, we attempt to identify and describe a number of pre-procedure, intra-procedure and post-procedure quality indicators, regarding process measures in small bowel capsule endoscopy, after a comprehensive review of the literature.

Magnetic resonance enterography versus capsule endoscopy activity indices for quantification of small bowel inflammation in Crohn's disease.

Project description:BackgroundVideo capsule endoscopy (VCE) and magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) are the prime modalities for the evaluation of small bowel (SB) Crohn's disease (CD). Mucosal inflammation on VCE is quantified using the Lewis score (LS). Diffusion-weighted (DW) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) allows for accurate assessment of SB inflammation without administration of intravenous contrast material. The Magnetic Resonance Index of Activity (MaRiA) and the Clermont index are quantitative activity indices validated for contrast-enhanced MRE and DW-MRE, respectively. The aim of this study was to compare the quantification of distal SB inflammation by VCE and MR-related activity indices.MethodsPatients with known quiescent SB CD were prospectively recruited and underwent MRE and VCE. LS, MaRIA and Clermont scores were calculated for the distal SB.ResultsBoth MRI-based indices significantly correlated with the LS and the Clermont index (r = 0.50, p = 0.001 and r = 0.53, p = 0.001, respectively). Both MaRIA and Clermont scores were significantly lower in patients with mucosal healing (LS < 135). The area under the curve (AUC) with both MR scores was moderate for prediction of any mucosal inflammation (LS ⩾ 135) and excellent for prediction of moderate-to-severe inflammation (LS ⩾ 790) (0.71 and 0.74 versus 0.93 and 0.91 for MaRIA and Clermont score, respectively).ConclusionsModest correlation between VCE- and MRE-based quantitative indices of inflammation in patients with quiescent SB CD was observed. Between-modality correlation was higher in patients with endoscopically severe disease. DW-MRE gauged by Clermont score was at least as accurate as contrast-enhanced MRE for quantification of SB inflammation.

The Influence of Obesity on Small Bowel Capsule Endoscopy.

Project description:ObjectiveIntestinal motility may be different in obese and nonobese patients, but this has not been determined. Here, we sought to evaluate the effect of obesity on small bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE). Patients and Methods. We retrospectively analyzed the cases of the 340 patients who underwent SBCE for small intestinal disease (excluding cases of unobservable total small bowel, small bowel stenosis, and bowel resection) at our hospital during the period January 2014 to December 2020 to extract patient background factors and the bowel transit times of SBCE according to the presence/absence of obesity (defined as a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m2).ResultsThe obese group was 54 patients (nonobese, n = 286). The small bowel transit time (SBTT) was significantly shorter in the obese patients compared to the nonobese patients (p = 0.0026), and when we divided the patients by their short/long SBTTs using 216.5 min as the cutoff, we observed significant between-group differences in the patients' age (≥60 years) and in the patients' hospitalization status at the time of the SBCE examination. A multivariate analysis revealed that hospitalized status at the examination is a factor contributing significantly to a long SBTT (OR 0.25, 95% CI: 0.15-0.42, p < 0.0001). An analysis using the outpatient/inpatient conditions showed that obesity was an independent factor in the inpatient status at the SBCE examination with a significant short SBTT (OR 2.91, 95% CI: 1.06-7.97, p = 0.0380). Constipation at the examination was also a factor contributing to a long SBTT (OR 0.26, 95% CI: 0.07-0.99, p = 0.0493).ConclusionThe SBTT of the SBCE was significantly shorter in the obese patients. This tendency was especially evident in the hospitalized state.
