Previous studies show that microendoscopic images can be interpreted visually to identify the presence of neoplasia in patients with Barrett's esophagus (BE), but this approach is subjective and requires clinical expertise. This study describes an approach for quantitative image analysis of microendoscopic images to identify neoplastic lesions in ...
