In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Detections of goblet cells and dysplasia are crucial for diagnosis and determining the surveillance program of Barrett's esophagus (BE). However, the optimal biopsy numbers and their yield rates of intestinal metaplasia (IM) and dysplasia are still uncertain, especially in Asia. The aim of this study was to determine the optimal biopsy protocol of BE.
