Abstract Purpose: Endoscopic surveillance of Barrett's esophagus is problematic because
dysplasia/early-stage neoplasia is frequently invisible and likely to be missed because of …

Background Barrett's esophagus (BE) is the metaplastic replacement of squamous with
columnar epithelium in the esophagus, as a result of reflux. It is the major risk factor for the …
