Abstract:
Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection is closely related to many digestive tract diseases such as chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, gastric adenocarcinoma and gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma, and early eradication of Hp can effectively improve the prognosis of these diseases. Compared with the commonly used clinical diagnostic methods, endoscopy can determine whether there is Hp infection while examining the primary disease, which is more visualized and immediate. This article reviewed the advances in study on endoscopic diagnosis of Hp infection, including standard endoscopy, magnifying endoscopy and some new technologies, such as narrow-band imaging, Fuji intelligent chromoendoscopy, I-Scan, blue laser imaging, linked color imaging, confocal laser endomicroscopy, artificial intelligence and so on.
