Abstract:
Iodine staining on white light imaging (WLI) is the gold standard for detecting and demarcating esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). We examined the effects of texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI) on improving the endoscopic visibility of ESCC under iodine staining. Methods Twenty ESCC lesions that underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection were retrospectively included. The color difference between ESCC and the surrounding mucosa ( ΔE e) on WLI, TXI, and narrow‐band imaging was assessed, and ΔE e under 1% iodine staining on WLI and TXI. Furthermore, the visibility grade determined by endoscopists was evaluated on each imaging. Result The median ΔE e was greater on TXI than on WLI (14.53 vs. 10.71, respectively; p 〈 0.005). Moreover, the median ΔE e on TXI under iodine staining was greater than the median ΔE e on TXI and narrow‐band imaging (39.20 vs. 14.53 vs. 16.42, respectively; p 〈 0.005 for both). A positive correlation in ΔE e under iodine staining was found between TXI and WLI (correlation coefficient = 0.61, p 〈 0.01). Moreover, ΔE e under iodine staining on TXI in each lesion was greater than the corresponding ΔE e on WLI. The visibility grade assessed by endoscopists on TXI was also significantly greater than that on WLI under iodine staining ( p 〈 0.01). Conclusions The visibility of ESCC after iodine staining was greater on TXI than on WLI.
