Post written by Takeshi Shimizu, MD, from the Department of Gastroenterology, Sendai City Medical Center, Sendai, Japan. The focus of our study was to identify the ideal acetic acid (AA) concentration for AA-enhanced narrow-band imaging (NBI) magnifying endoscopy (ANBI-ME) in diagnosing colorectal epithelial neoplasms. We then compared its pit pattern diagnostic ability and diagnostic concordance with crystal …

Post written by Noriko Suzuki, MD, PhD, from The Wolfson Unit for Endoscopy, St Mark’s Hospital, London, United Kingdom. We demonstrated the application of the double-tunneling (DoT) butterfly method for ESD on 4 cases with extensive rectal neoplasms. The key feature of the DoT butterfly method is the creation of 2 tunnels that are transformed …
