Cytosponge-TFF3 Testing can Detect Precancerous Mucosal Changes of the Stomach.

Gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM) and gastric atrophy (GA) are associated with increased risk of gastric cancer and are indications for endoscopic surveillance when affecting the proximal stomach.1 Endoscopic screening is not cost-effective in areas with low-moderate incidence of gastric cancer2; noninvasive methods to detect GIM/GA are currently lacking.3.
