Mapping the colon through the colonoscope's coordinates - The Copenhagen Colonoscopy Coordinate Database

Colonoscopy is the leading endoscopic technique when it comes to implementing artificial intelligence-based tools to optimize the procedure. However, no database consisting of the colonoscope's coordinates exists, allowing for a mapping with timestamps of the colonoscope path through the colon. The colonoscope contains coils that, through electromagnetic radiance, are translated into magnetic endoscopic imaging of the position while inside the patient, so the entire length of the colonoscope's position of the colonoscopy can be mapped. Such data have already been used to develop the colonoscopy retraction score, which correlates with the adenoma detection rate and the colonoscopy progression score, which correlates with pain experienced pain. Therefore, we provide a database consisting of 1400 clinical colonoscopies and 100 colonoscopies from a simulated setting. These data are freely available and could be used to map the mucosal inspection of the colon, generate heatmaps to ensure an equally distributed inspection, etc.
