lüll Magnification endoscopy, high resolution endoscopy, and chromoscopy; towards a better optical diagnosis Bruno MJGut 2003[Jun]; 52 Suppl 4 (Suppl 4): iv7-11In the past few years, optical magnification endoscopy and chromoscopy have gained renewed interest in the West as a means for the early detection of minute lesions in patients with Barrett's oesophagus and in patients referred for colonic cancer screening. In Barrett's oesophagus, the vast majority of data on the use of chromoscopy deals with the application of methylene blue. Conventional videoendoscopy in combination with methylene blue staining improves the detection of Barrett's mucosa. A correlation has been shown between variation and intensity of staining and histologically verified stages of dysplasia or cancer. Magnification endoscopy and chromoscopy improve the detection of colonic non-polypoid lesions associated with neoplasia and carcinoma. Pitt pattern analysis enables the distinction of non-neoplastic non-polypoid lesions (type I and II) from neoplastic type non-polypoid lesions (type III-V) with great accuracy. It is certain that "old fashioned" chromoscopy combined with advanced endoscopic technology carry a great diagnostic potential and should be further put to the test for use in daily clinical practice.|Barrett Esophagus/*diagnosis[MESH]|Colorectal Neoplasms/*diagnosis[MESH]|Coloring Agents[MESH]|Endoscopy, Gastrointestinal/*methods[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Methylene Blue[MESH] |
