Clinical impact of combination of lesion-border findings and pit patterns for identifying invasive versus noninvasive neoplastic lesions in ulcerative colitis
Post written by Yurie Kawabata, MD, from Digestive Disease Center, Showa Medical University Northern Yokohama Hospital, Yokohama, Japan. Our study focuses on evaluating whether assessing lesion-border findings (“distinct” vs “indistinct” borders) using indigo carmine chromoendoscopy can help identify cases in which Kudo’s pit pattern analysis is truly reliable for predicting the invasion depth of lesions in patients …
