Abstract
A method for detecting indicators of a disease characterized by a presence of villous atrophy in images of a gastrointestinal tract (GIT), includes accessing a consecutive set of images of a portion of the GIT comprising a small bowel. Each image is associated with one or more classification scores, and each classification score is indicative of the associated image including a respective indicator of a disease characterized by the presence of villous atrophy. The method further includes selecting a subset of images from the consecutive set of images based on the one or more classification scores of each image of the consecutive set of images, identifying a segment of images which includes all of the images that show a proximal portion of the small bowel, selecting a plurality of images from the identified segment of images that represent the proximal portion of the small bowel, and displaying the selected images.
