Visibility evaluation of gastric epithelial neoplasm of fundic gland mucosa lineage using texture and color enhancement imaging.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Recently, the incidence of Helicobacter pylori-uninfected gastric cancers, such as gastric epithelial neoplasm of fundic-gland mucosa lineage (GEN-FGML), has increased with the widespread use of eradication therapy. Because the detection and endoscopic diagnosis of GEN-FGML are difficult, an effective observation method in screening endoscopy is required. We investigated whether texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI) improved the visibility of GEN-FGML compared with white light imaging (WLI).

Methods

In this single-center prospective clinical study, 50 GEN-FGML lesions (35 patients) treated at our hospital between October 2020 and June 2023 were analyzed. The endoscopic images of GEN-FGML obtained using WLI, TXI mode 1 (TXI-1), TXI mode 2 (TXI-2), and narrow-
