TLDR
There are two main methodological approaches for the evaluation of chronic atrophic gastritis as a precancerous gastric lesions: invasive examination, which requires histological analysis of biopsy samples taken during upper digestive endoscopy, being the “gold standard” for diagnosis, and non-invasive serological examination using markers of gastric function.Abstract:
Background and aim Atrophic gastritis is a precancerous gastric lesion, therefore its early detection is a priority in preventing gastric cancer. The aim of the present paper is to develop a narrative synthesis of the present knowledge on diagnostic methods of chronic atrophic gastritis. Methods A literature search was carried out on main databases: PubMed, Hinari, SpringerLink and Scopus (Elsevier) for the period 2000-2020. The searched keywords were: chronic atrophic gastritis, intestinal metaplasia and dysplasia + diagnosis. Inclusion criteria were focused on the articles about the invasive and non-invasive diagnosis of chronic atrophic gastritis and of precancerous gastric lesions, intestinal metaplasia and dysplasia; exclusion criteria were articles published before 2000 and those that did not include the proposed theme. Results The search returned 575 papers addressing the topic of precancerous lesions. From these, 60 articles were qualified representative for the materials published on the topic of this synthesis article, being those that met the inclusion criteria. The data emphasize the need to use upper digestive endoscopy with biopsies for the diagnosis of chronic atrophic gastritis. However serological diagnosis is available as alternative mainly recommended in follow up. Conclusions There are two main methodological approaches for the evaluation of chronic atrophic gastritis as a precancerous gastric lesions: invasive examination, which requires histological analysis of biopsy samples taken during upper digestive endoscopy, being the "gold standard" for diagnosis, and non-invasive serological examination using markers of gastric function.read more

TL;DR: Patients with chronic atrophic gastritis or intestinal metaplasia (IM) are at risk for gastric adenocarcinoma, and identification and surveillance of patients with precancerous gastric conditions is cost-effective.

TL;DR: In narrow-band imaging with magnifying endoscopy, observation of a light blue crest on the epithelial surface in the gastric mucosa is a highly accurate sign of the presence of histological intestinal metaplasia.

TL;DR: There is insufficient evidence to support screening in a low-risk population (undergoing routine diagnostic oesophagogastroduodenoscopy) such as the UK, but endoscopic surveillance every 3 years should be offered to patients with extensive GA or GIM.
