Abstract:
ObjectiveTo evaluate the Fuji intelligent chromo endoscopy (FICE) in the diagnosis of Barrett esophagus (BE).MethodsFrom September 2010 to March 2011,a total of 180 patients with suspected reflux esophagitis were examined successively by FICE,magnifying FICE,acetic dyeing endoscopy and magnifying acetic dyeing endoscopy.The diagnosis was made out under the observation of lesion extensions,superficial mucosa contrast ratio,pit patterns and capillary forms of BE.The endoscopic diagnosis was made and compared with the pathologic diagnosis,and the consistency of the diagnosis was evaluated by Kappa value.ResultsBE was confirmed in 35 patients ( 19.4% ) pathologically.The consistency rates of diagnosis under FICE and acetic dyeing endoscopy were 81.7% and 72.8% ( P < 0.05 ).The consistency rates of diagnosis under magnifying FICE and magnifying acetic dyeing endoscopy were 97.8% and 85.6%,respectively (P < 0.05).FICE magnifying endoscopy revealed better mucosal structures of capillaries than magnifying acetic dyeing endoscopy did ( P < 0.05 ),but there was no significant difference in revealing of duct openings (P > 0.05).The specificity,sensitivity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value and Kappa value of FICE in diagnosis of BE were 82.1%,80.0%,51.9%,94.4% and 0.52,respectively,which were 73.2%,71.4%,39.1%,91.4% and 0.34 of acetic dyeing endoscopy,98.6%,94.3%,94.3%,98.6% and 0.93 of magnifying FICE,and 88.3%,74.3%,60.5%,93.4% and 0.58 for magnifying acetic dyeing endoscopy.ConclusionAs a neotypical endoscopic system,magnifying FICE could exhibit clearly the pit patterns and microvascular structures of esophagus mucosa,and it can capture the optimal images of Barrett's epithelium.FICE could improve the diagnosis of BE in vivo.
