Magnified Observation of Elevated Borderline Lesions (Adenoma) of the Stomach Based on Dissecting Microscopy and Magnifying Fiberoptic Endoscopy

Summary

We have established a system of classification for interpreting the magnified images of elevated lesions of the stomach (see Table 1). Working with a large sample, we isolated what we call borderline lesions of the stomach (adenoma), defined them, and then devised a way of interpreting magnified images to help endoscopists identify them.

Key words:

Dissecting microscope - Magnifying fiberoptic endoscope - Borderline lesion (adenoma) of the stomach - Magnified observation
