Early Detection of Superficial Squamous Cell Carcinoma in the Head and Neck Region and Esophagus by Narrow Band Imaging: A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial

TLDR
NBI could be the standard examination for the early detection of superficial cancer in the H&N region and the esophagus between conventional white light imaging and NBI in high-risk patients.
Abstract
Purpose Most of the esophageal squamous cell carcinomas (ESCCs) and cancers of the head and neck (HN 97% v 55%, P < .001, respectively). The sensitivity ...

Real-time artificial intelligence for detection of upper gastrointestinal cancer by endoscopy: a multicentre, case-control, diagnostic study

TL;DR: The Gastrointestinal Artificial Intelligence Diagnostic System (GRAIDS) for the diagnosis of upper gastrointestinal cancers through analysis of imaging data from clinical endoscopies was developed and validated and achieved high diagnostic accuracy in detectingupper gastrointestinal cancers, with sensitivity similar to that of expertendoscopists and was superior tothat of non-expert endoscOPists.
