抄録 Barrett's esophagus (BE) is a condition that develops as a consequence of chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease in which stratified squamous epithelium is replaced by metaplastic columnar epithelium, which in turn predisposes to the development of adenocarcinoma of the esophagus. Recent advances in the endoscopic imaging techniques has enabled the Endoscopist to detect premalignant precursors of cancer in BE at an even earlier stage. Some of the current available novel technologies including High-Resolution Endoscopy, Narrow Band Imaging, Chromoendoscopy, Magnification Endoscopy, Endocytoscopy, Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy and Autofluorescence Imaging as well as some of the future cutting edge endoscopic applications which are in the horizon and its utility in the detection of dysplasia and early cancer in BE will be discussed in this lecture.
