An area of Barrett's oesophagus in a subject's oesophagus is quantified from a video image signal representing a video image of the subject's oesophagus captured using a camera of an endoscope. Depth estimation on the frames to derive depth maps in respect of frames of the video image. Regions of the frames corresponding to an area of Barrett's oesophagus in the subject's oesophagus are segmented. A value of a geometrical measure of the area of Barrett's oesophagus is calculated using the depth map and segmented region in respect of at least one of the frames.
