Journal ArticleDOI

The utility of a novel narrow band imaging endoscopy system in patients with Barrett's esophagus.

TL;DR: NBI is a novel diagnostic tool with a high degree of accuracy for the detection of metaplastic and dysplastic tissue within the BE segment and was unable to distinguish areas of IM from those with LGD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Standard endoscopy with random biopsies versus narrow band imaging targeted biopsies in Barrett's oesophagus: a prospective, international, randomised controlled trial

TL;DR: Regular appearing NBI surface patterns did not harbour high-grade dysplasia/cancer, suggesting that biopsies could be avoided in these areas, and high-definition white light examinations with NBI can have the same IM detection rate as an HD-WLE examination with the Seattle protocol while requiring fewerBiopsies.
Journal ArticleDOI

A feasibility trial of narrow band imaging endoscopy in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease.

TL;DR: NBI endoscopy may represent a significant improvement over standard endoscope for the diagnosis of GERD, and these preliminary findings including inter- and intraobserver agreement need to be evaluated in future prospective, controlled, and blinded GERD trials.
