  • Title: Endoscopic differential diagnosis between ulcerative colitis-associated neoplasia and sporadic neoplasia in surveillance colonoscopy using narrow band imaging.
    Author: Watanabe K, Sogawa M, Yamagami H, Watanabe J, Ajioka Y, Arakawa T.
    Journal: Dig Endosc; 2011 May; 23 Suppl 1():143-9. PubMed ID: 21535221.
    Abstract:
    We investigated the efficacy of narrow band imaging, magnifying chromoendoscopy, autofluorescence imaging and photodynamic diagnosis for surveillance colonoscopy or work-up in patients with ulcerative colitis. Endoscopic differential diagnosis between sporadic neoplasia and colitis-associated dysplasia or cancer, however, is still an important issue in practice. Optimization of surveillance colonoscopy, including development of novel methods, should be addressed in the near future.
