Tu1573 ACCURACY OF I-SCAN FOR THE DETECTION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF PREMALIGNANT GASTRIC LESIONS

In Mexico there are no recommendations for screening of upper gastrointestinal neoplasms in the general population. Identifying gastric premalignant lesions allows timely detection and early treatment 1. Standard white-light endoscopy may miss a significant amount of gastric lesions, virtual chromoendoscopy as I-scan (Pentax, Tokyo, Japan) consists of three different image algorithms: (i) surface enhancement (SE); (ii) tone enhancement (TE); and (iii) contrast enhancement (CE); I-scan 2 mode was established for characterization of lesions.
