Scoring colonoscopy videos of UC patients requires a high level of expertise, but even among trained expert readers there are disagreements. In clinical trials, this can negatively impact both subject selection and assessment of treatment response. Consistency among central readers might be improved by algorithms that automatically process videos to identify salient features and estimate the level of disease activity using established scoring methods.
