CE is often identified in infertile women with unexplained etiology, tubal factors, endometriosis, repeated implantation failure, and recurrent pregnancy loss. Diagnosis of CE has traditionally relied on endometrial biopsy and histopathologic\/immunohistochemistrical detection of ESPCs. Endometrial biopsy, however, is a somewhat painful procedure for the subjects and does not allow us to grasp the whole picture of this mucosal tissue. Meanwhile, fluid hysteroscopy has been recently adopted as a less-invasive diagnostic modality for CE. We launched the ARCHIPELAGO (ARChival Hysteroscopic Image-based Prediction for histopathologic chronic Endometritis in infertile women using deep LeArninG mOdel) study to construct the hysteroscopic CE finding-based prediction tools for histopathologic CE. The development of these deep learning-based novel models and computer-aided detection\/diagnosis systems potentially benefits infertile women suffering from this elusive disease.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/medicina60060972","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,14]],"date-time":"2024-06-14T10:42:34Z","timestamp":1718361754000},"page":"972","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Bridging the Diagnostic Gap between Histopathologic and Hysteroscopic Chronic Endometritis with Deep Learning Models"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"60","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5693-3139","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kotaro","family":"Kitaya","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Infertility Center, Iryouhoujin Kouseikai Mihara Hospital, 6-8 Kamikatsura Miyanogo-cho, Nishikyo-ku, Kyoto 615-8227, Japan"},{"name":"Iryouhoujin Kouseikai Katsura-ekimae Mihara Clinic, 103 Katsura OS Plaza Building, 133 Katsura Minamitatsumi-cho, Nishikyo-ku, Kyoto 615-8074, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tadahiro","family":"Yasuo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Otsu City Hospital, 2-9-9 Motomiya, Otsu 520-0804, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Takeshi","family":"Yamaguchi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Infertility Center, Daigo Watanabe Clinic, 30-15 Daigo Takahata-cho, Fushimi-ku, Kyoto 601-1375, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Vitagliano, A., Lagan\u00e0, A.S., De Ziegler, D., Cicinelli, R., Santarsiero, C.M., Buzzaccarini, G., Chiantera, V., Cicinelli, E., and Marinaccio, M.
