A HIGH-RESOLUTION MICROENDOSCOPE IMPROVES ESOPHAGEAL CANCER SCREENING AND SURVEILLANCE: IMPLICATIONS FOR UNDERSERVED GLOBAL SETTINGS BASED ON AN INTERNATIONAL, RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL

Lugol's chromoendoscopy (LCE)-based detection of esophageal squamous cell neoplasia (ESCN) is limited by low specificity. High-resolution microendoscopy (HRME) was shown to improve specificity and reduce unnecessary biopsies when used by academic endoscopists. In this international, randomized controlled trial, we determined the clinical impact, efficiency, and performance of HRME in true global health contexts with a range of providers.
