Abstract
Barrett's esophagus is the only known pre-cancerous lesion for esophageal adenocarcinoma and is diagnosed by high-definition white light endoscopy demonstrating a columnar-lined esophagus along with biopsy evidence of intestinal metaplasia. With accurate performance and reporting of the endoscopic procedure, an evidence-based management strategy can be developed for treatment of Barrett's dysplasia. However, cross-sectional data demonstrate that there is still inconsistency among gastroenterologists in performance and reporting of endoscopic findings in patients with Barrett's esophagus. Here, we present an evidence-based review of how to report endoscopic findings in Barrett's esophagus.
