Early detection of GI cancer mass is of utmost importance due to the risks of misdiagnoses that occur through standard endoscopic evaluation.
In this research, a real-time intra-endoscopic electrical diagnostic probe has been introduced to discriminate high-risk excision-required lesions utilizing a modified endoscopic biopsy forceps as a non-invasive method.
By testing on 52 patients who had undergone endoscopic biopsy with a total of 18 high-risk lesions, the invented device named Electrical Endoscopic Mass Characterizer (EEMC), showed %94.7 sensitivity, %93.9 specificity, and %94.2 accuracy (p < 0.01) based on histopathological evaluations of removed specimens as the gold standard.
EEMC can be utilized as a precise complementary device during endoscopic evaluation for improving the accuracy of early-stage GI cancer detection with no interruptions in the routine procedure.
由于标准内镜评估存在误诊风险，早期发现胃肠道（GI）癌肿块至关重要。
在本研究中，引入了一种实时内镜电诊断探头，以利用改良的内镜活检钳作为非侵入性方法来鉴别需要切除的高风险病变。
通过对52例接受内镜活检的患者进行测试，共有18个高风险病变，以切除标本的组织病理学评估作为金标准，名为内镜电肿块特征仪（EEMC）的发明装置显示出94.7%的灵敏度、93.9%的特异性和94.2%的准确率（p < 0.01）。
EEMC可在内镜评估期间用作精确的辅助设备，以提高早期胃肠道癌检测的准确性，且不干扰常规程序。
