“…Gastric IM is recognized as a frequent precancerous lesion that can be very challenging to identify by using conventional white light reflectance (WLR) endoscopy with a limited diagnostic accuracy ($58.8%; ref. 4). Epidemiologic studies suggest that patients with IM have more than 10-fold increased risk of developing dysplasia into gastric cancer (5).…”

“…7 Unfortunately, such real-time interpretation requires considerable training and is subject to intraobserver variability. [8][9][10] For broader clinical application, particularly outside a university setting, the application of image-analysis software using well-defined image classification algorithms has the potential to reduce subjectivity and improve diagnostic accuracy.…”

“…In 267 optical biopsies from 53 patients, intestinal metaplasia was correctly diagnosed with a specificity of 95% and a sensitivity of 98%. Interobserver agreement for diagnosis during endoscopy was 0.94 [37]. This makes CLE the only reliable endoscopic method to predict intestinal metaplasia.…”
