Implementation of a prospective video databank for artificial intelligence model development, validation and clinical outcomes research in gastrointestinal endoscopy.

Standardized video databank for endoscopy enables rigorous AI model validation, addressing reproducibility challenges in digestive-tract imaging AI.

This paper describes the implementation of a prospective video databank for GI endoscopy specifically designed to support rigorous AI model development and external validation, addressing the reproducibility crisis in GI endoscopy AI. The infrastructure design includes standardized annotation, outcome linkage, and data governance frameworks relevant to any endoscopy AI deployment.
