Endoscopy Live: GERD & Barrett's Esophagus: The Journey Continues (On-Demand) | December 2021-Procedure 5: Imaging of BE and Neoplasia

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, Dr. Rehan Haidry from University College London Hospital demonstrates the imaging of Barrett's esophagus and neoplasia. Using the Pentax Highline series, he showcases various imaging techniques including white light endoscopy, chromoendoscopy, and AI-assisted imaging. Dr. Haidry emphasizes the importance of basic techniques such as washing, looking, and using the switches on the endoscope before incorporating advanced imaging technologies. He also discusses the use of a distal attachment cap to improve visualization and inspection of the mucosa. The video highlights the use of eye scan optical enhancement and computer-aided diagnostics to identify and assess dysplasia in the esophagus. The AI system provides valuable information about the location and extent of the lesion. Based on the imaging findings, Dr. Haidry plans to perform an endoscopic mucosal resection to remove the high-grade dysplasia or intramucosal cancer. The video concludes with a discussion about the decision to perform mucosal ablation in this case.
