Core Tip

Core Tip: Barrett’s esophagus is a significant precursor to esophageal adenocarcinoma. Detection of dysplasia or neoplastic changes in Barrett’s esophagus can often be difficult as endoscopic changes can be subtle. Artificial intelligence has the potential to aid endoscopist in detecting such lesions endoscopically and also reduce the inter-observer variability in detecting dysplasia in Barrett’s esophagus histologically.
