1. Brian C. Wilson Barrett's esophagus (BE) is a condition that poses high risk of developing dysplasia leading to cancer. Detection of dysplasia is a critical element in determining therapy but is extremely challenging, so that standard white-light endoscopy is used only as a means to guide biopsy. Many novel optical ... [J. Biomed. Opt. 12, 051401 (2007)] published Thu Nov 1, 2007. (Read Full Article)
