Our results showed that NBI had a significant accuracy in BE assessment for dysplasia prediction, high specificity (>90%), and NPV (>85%), with suboptimal sensitivity. NBI could be a useful additional tool for BE inspection and targeted biopsies, but cannot avoid the need for biopsies following the Seattle protocol.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
