Figure 1 (A–C) A lesion containing HGD/Ca is depicted at the 11 o'clock position. (A) A more prominent lesion located at the 5 o'clock position is shown. Both lesions were detected with HRE and AFI. NBI showed irregular mucosal and vascular patterns suspicious for dysplasia. (D and E) Two lesions with HGD/Ca located at the 2 and the 5 o'clock positions are shown. These lesions were missed during HRE but were subsequently detected with AFI (E). NBI (F) showed irregular mucosal and vascular patterns and abnormal blood vessels suspicious for dysplasia. AFI, autofluorescence imaging; Ca, Carcinoma; HGD, high-grade dysplasia; HRE, high-resolution endoscopy; NBI, narrow band imaging.

Figure 2 Images G and H show an AFI false-positive lesion. Detailed inspection with NBI (Image I) showed regular mucosal and regular vascular patterns not suspicious for dysplasia. Histopathology revealed non-dysplastic BE. AFI: autofluoresence imaging; NBI: narrow band imaging; BE: Barrett's eosphagus.
