21 cze 2017 · In upper GI endoscopy, 2 esophageal, 4 gastric, and 2 duodenal standard images are proposed. In colonoscopy, 7 colonic and 1 rectal images are recommended. These pictures should be numbered from 1 to 8, with the highest number corresponding to the most distant sector reached.
The Yield of Biopsy to Diagnose Short-Segment Barrett's Esophagus. Background: The diagnosis of Barrett's esophagus (BE) requires the demonstration of specialized intestinal metaplasia (SIM) within the tubular esophagus.
21 mar 2018 · Diseases of the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract can be evaluated by a variety of imaging modalities, including barium fluoroscopy, CT, ultrasound, MR, PET-CT, PET-MR, and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS).
23 cze 2019 · The Z line is an irregular serrated line that demarcates the squamocolumnar mucosal junction. The Z line can sometimes be recognized on double-contrast esophagograms as a thin radiolucent stripe in the distal esophagus with a characteristic zigzag appearance ( Fig. 26-2 ).
26 lip 2022 · The main aim of this study is automatic Z-line extraction using endoscopic images leading to segmentation of the early BE stage. To this end, a computer-aided detection method exploiting k-means clustering, image segmentation using the edge detector, and a novel boundary linking algorithm is proposed.
