Gastroscopy or gastric endoscopy is a very safe and effective tool that offers the visual examination of gastric region with the help of a slender, flexible, telescopic camera known as a gastroscope. The gastroscope is passed down through the mouth into the stomach via the oesophagus and displays the video on connected screen for variety of diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Klausner et al. (2003a) utilized gastroscopy to visualize GRDF administered with a glass of sugar water following an overnight fasting.

Gastroscopy is a reliable method for early screening of gastric cancer in clinical practice. However, the detection rates are often less than 15% in developing countries. In this paper, we propose SCEG, a smart connected electronic gastroscopy system that performs dynamic cancer screening in gastroscopy. SCEG is designed to assist gastroscopists in detecting lesions during gastroscopic examinations, which helps reduce miss-diagnoses or misdiagnoses in real time. As shown in Figure 1, a SCEG system contains four main modules: the electronic gastroscope (EG), the all-in-one integrated system (IOS), the endoscopic video management system (EVMS) and the cloud service system for gastric cancer screening (CSS).
