Artificial intelligence in endoscopic ultrasound: Clinical translation of a prediction, navigation, and diagnosis framework

Figure 4 Closed-loop workflow of artificial intelligence-augmented endoscopic ultrasound procedure. This flowchart delineates the operational integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into the endoscopic ultrasound procedure. Beginning with AI-assisted navigation and image acquisition, it proceeds through sequential steps of AI analysis, physician review, consensus decision-making (with multidisciplinary consultation if needed), and final structured reporting. The diagram visually encapsulates the synergistic human-AI collaboration required to implement the “Prediction-Navigation-Diagnosis” framework in clinical practice. AI: Artificial intelligence; EUS: Endoscopic ultrasound.
