RESULTS OF DIAGNOSIS OF ESOPHAGEAL LESIONS BY NARROW BAND IMAGING ENDOSCOPY(NBI) IN PATIENTS WITH GASTROESOPHAGEAL REFLUX IN THAI NGUYEN
Overview
Abstract:
Objectives: Describe clinical characteristic,
narrow band imaging endoscopy (NBI) in patients with value of NBI and white light endoscopy with
histopathological comparison in the diagnosis of injury
esophageal due to gastroesophageal reflux. Subject
and methods: A cross- sectional descriptive study
with analysis was conducted on 79 patients with
gastroesophageal reflux disease from October 2022 to
Jun 2023 in Thai Nguyen Results: Narrow band
imaging (NBI) helps detecting more cases of
esophagitis than conventional endoscopy does,
especially in grade A esophagitis (67,7% versus 51,9
%), sensitivity, specificity, accuracy are higher. In
diagnosing Barret’s esophagus, NBI helps detecting
more cases than conventional endoscopy with
sensitivity 81,8%, specificity 94,1% and accuracy
92,4%. Conclusions: Narrow band imaging
endoscopy should be widely used in the diagnosis of
esophageal lesions in patients with gastroesophageal
reflux disease.
