The accuracy of probe-based confocal endomicroscopy versus conventional endoscopic biopsies for the diagnosis of superficial gastric neoplasia (with videos)

Imaging the Leaky Gut

“…6 Instead, people tend to eat in dietary patterns, ranging from the healthy fat and plant-rich Mediterranean diet to the "meat-sweet" diet of developed countries heavy in processed foods, refined sugars, and red meat. 7 The current study, 3 and recent publications demonstrating reduced HCC risk in adherents to a Mediterranean food pattern or a diet low in red meat, [8][9][10] support this perspective. Yang et al 3 present a meta-analysis including 10 cohort and 9 case-control studies conducted in Asia, Europe, and the United States that evaluated the association of 2 whole foods-fruits and vegetables-with HCC risk.…”

“…10 Molecular imaging with tagged monoclonal antibody has enabled imaging of antiendothelial growth factor receptor monoclonal antibody binding to targets and predication of response to endothelial growth factor receptor chemotherapy. 5,9,11 Imaging of overt and microscopic inflammation is now well established.…”

Past and current trends in endoscopic diagnosis for early stage gastric cancer in Japan

“…At present, pCLE is the only commercially available CLE system in Japan. Bok et al compared the accuracy of endoscopic forceps biopsy and pCLE for the diagnosis of superficial gastric neoplasia [32]. Overall agreement with the final diagnosis based on pathological analysis of specimens sampled by endoscopic resection was significantly higher for pCLE than traditional forceps biopsy diagnosis, and the overall accuracy of pCLEbased diagnosis of adenocarcinoma was 90.7 %.…”

The application of the modern endoscopic updating techniques for the detection of epithelial structures in gastric mucosa

“…Другая группа ученых (G. Bok, S. Jeon, J. Cho и др.) в своей работе определила общую точ ность диагностики рака желудка с использованием КЛЭМ в 98,1% [13,14]. В России, кроме нашей кли ники, в крупных центрах также проводят работы по изучению диагностической ценности КЛЭМ.…”

“…Кроме того, исследова ние безболезненно для пациента. Благодаря воз можности передачи сканирующего лазерного излу чения по оптоволоконному зонду, его можно доста вить во все отделы ЖКТ, доступные для эндоскопа, а также через троакары или гибкие катетеры в по лости или к паренхиматозным органам, открывая новые возможности в диагностике [13]. Однако по верхностное проникновение сканирующего лазер ного излучения не дает возможности оценивать подслизистый слой.…”
