The shape and size of a colonic polyp is a biomarker that correlates with its risk of malignancy and guides its clinical management. It is the most accurate method for detecting polyps of all sizes, and it allows biopsy of lesions and resection of most polyps, and it is considered nowadays as the gold standard for colon screening. However, there are still open challenges to overcome, such as the reduction of the missing rate. Colonoscopy images usually consist of nonrigid objects such as a polyp, and no approaches have been proposed to recovery shape and absolute size from a single image. Hence, it is a challenging topic to reconstruct polyp shape using computer vision technique. This paper proposes a polyp shape retrieval method based on Shape from Shading (SFS), and this research contributes to mitigating constraint for applying SFS to the single colonoscopy image using vascular border information. Experiments confirmed that the proposed method recovered approximate polyp shapes.
