Differential diagnosis of colorectal neoplastic and non-neoplastic lesions with real-time numerical color analysis using autofluorescence endoscopy
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Interventions: From November 2010 to August 2012 Following the detection of colorectal lesions in WL observation, the lesions were diagnosed for neoplastic or non-neoplastic.
In autofluorescence mode, color-tone sampling is performed on the area that had no halation or no bleeding points which might hamper analysis by the other endoscopist who did not know details of the lesion. Surrounding normal colonic mucosa was also analyzed for its color-tone in order to compare both G/R ratios. Lesions with G/R of < 1.01 are judged to be neoplastic and that with G/R of > 1.01 are considered to be non-neoplastic. Consecutively, all lesions analyzed in the present study are endoscopically removed or biopsied and the specimens are submitted to pathologic evaluation. Finally, pre-removal diagnoses and final pathological diagnoses are compared to each other in order to calculate the diagnostic yield of G/R ratio in the differential diagnosis of colorectal neoplastic lesions from non-neoplastic lesions. Pathologic diagnosis Histopathologic examination of the endoscopically or surgically resected specimen was performed on hematoxylin and eosin-stained sections, with reference to Japanese classification of colorectal carcinoma4. Lesions were classified into 2 categories based on the final pathological diagnoses, neoplastic lesions and non-neoplastic lesions. Neoplastic lesions included 5 pathological types, submucosal invasive cancer, intramucosal cancer, tubular or villous adenoma, traditional serrated adenoma (TSA) and sessile serrated adenoma (SSA). Non-neoplastic lesion included only hyperplastic lesion.
