Diagnosis of endoscopic Barrett's esophagus by transnasal flexible spectral imaging color enhancement

Background The diagnosis of endoscopic Barrett’s esophagus (BE) has been under discussion for the past decade because palisade vessels may be obscured by inflammation or the location of upper end of gastric fold may be diversely changed. The flexible spectral imaging color enhancement (FICE) system can reconstruct improved spectral images decomposed from ordinary endoscopic images with free selection of three wavelengths, and can provide non-magnified images with high light intensity.
