Optimal Imaging Modalities for Detecting Gastric Neoplasms

The trial compared the effectiveness of three imaging modalities – third-generation narrowband imaging (3G-NBI), texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI), and high-definition white-light imaging (WLI) – in detecting gastric neoplasms (GNs). Results showed that 3G-NBI outperformed TXI and WLI, with higher GN detection rates and lower rates of missed GNs and increased positive predictive value for GN diagnosis. 3G-NBI is identified as the most promising modality for early detection of gastric neoplasms.
