Cold Snare on the Rise?
Cold snare resection has been established in diminutive polyps (up to 5 mm) as being at least as safe and partially more effective than biopsy
Paris Classification: Early Barrett Cancers
In the following, examples for superficial/early Barrett lesions of the esophagus are shown. Here, flat and sessilelesions are predominant, pedunculated tumors are rare. Sessile tumor
Paris Classification: Early Colorectal Cancers
The Paris classification for superficial / early tumors should be part of a standard terminology for endoscopic assessment. This classification applies to the entire gastrointestinal
Optimizing the adenoma detection rate – a never-ending story? Or does the outcome quality depend on the follow-up?
The adenoma detection rate (ADR) is the holy grail of quality assurance in colonoscopy. It is the main parameter for outcome quality — or more
Paris Classification Early Cancer
Endoscopic treatment for early carcinoma in the gastrointestinal tract has in the meantime become evidence-based and has been incorporated into national and international guidelines

Rectal NET Tumors
Unclear smaller polyps in the rectum may represent a pitfall — if they do not look like perfectly typical hyperplasia or small adenomas, then carcinoids
Endoscopic diagnosis of colon polyps using the NICE classification: initial experience with BLI and LCI
The new generation of the Fujifilm electronic endoscopy system allows virtual chromoendoscopy alongside zoom endoscopy. Blue laser imaging (BLI), like narrow-band imaging (NBI), allows further
