Abstract
In a screening analysis of a general population in China, we found Lugol chromoendoscopy to identify individuals with ESD with lower levels of sensitivity (46%-87%) than previously believed, although it identified patients with esophageal cancer with almost 98% sensitivity. Prospective studies are needed to evaluate the clinical significance of esophageal lesions that are not detected by endoscopy.
