Effectiveness of narrow band imaging in the detection of premalignant and malignant lesions of the larynx: validation of a new endoscopic clinical classification.
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to assess the value of narrow band imaging (NBI) endoscopy in the diagnosis of pharyngolaryngeal lesions and to demonstrate the validity of a new NBI-based classification of their vascular pattern. METHODS From 2009 to 2011, 248 patients with pharyngolaryngeal lesions underwent NBI-endoscopic evaluation. NBI findings were classified into 5 types accord...
متن کاملUtility of magnifying endoscopy with narrow band imaging in determining the invasion depth of superficial pharyngeal cancer.
BACKGROUND Magnifying endoscopy with narrow band imaging (ME-NBI) is useful to diagnose invasion depth of superficial esophageal cancer. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the utility of ME-NBI of superficial pharyngeal cancer. METHODS Between April 2008 and June 2012, 146 lesions in 104 patients who underwent ME-NBI and en bloc resection were retrospectively analyzed. Based on magnify...
متن کاملValue of narrow band imaging in the early diagnosis of laryngeal cancer.
BACKGROUND Narrow band imaging (NBI) is a new imaging technique for the depiction of tumor-specific neoangiogenesis. The purpose of the present study was to assess the value of NBI in the early diagnosis of laryngeal cancer. METHODS This prospective study includes 205 consecutive patients with a laryngeal lesion scheduled for microlaryngoscopy. NBI was immediately performed after white light ...
متن کاملNarrow-band imaging for detecting early recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
BACKGROUND Detection of early recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is clinically challenging. Narrow-band imaging (NBI) is powerful in detecting early superficial lesions in the head and neck, although the utility of NBI in detecting nasopharyngeal cancer is still unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS We describe a case of a 51-year-old man with early recurrent NPC detected in subclinical stage by...
متن کاملEndoscopic findings using narrow-band imaging to distinguish between basal cell hyperplasia and carcinoma of the pharynx
Narrow-band imaging (NBI) has been reported to be useful for detecting superficial-type esophageal or head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and in the present study we have used NBI to detect non-carcinomatous lesions, such as basal cell hyperplasia (BCH) accompanied by microvascular irregularities; these non-carcinomatous lesions were pathologically discriminated from squamous cell carc...
