Why stopped (as posted): The company that supported the technology (volumetric laser endomicroscopy) is no longer operational due to the pandemic.
Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Researchers are trying to see if the Nvision® Imaging System (VLE) can accurately determine the risk of recurrent Barrett's esophagus in patients with Barrett's esophagus which have been clear of disease.

Arms (1)
- type
- EXPERIMENTAL
- label
- Volumetric laser Endomicroscopy (VLE)
- description
- Volumetric laser Endomicroscopy (VLE) is a second-generation optical coherence tomography platform that can image the human esophagus in cross-section at microscopic resolution this will performed by using the Nvision VLE Imaging System.
- interventionNames
- Device: The Nvision VLE Imaging System
Primary outcomes (3)
- measure
- Determine association between number of glandular structures measured with volumetric laser endomicroscopy and recurrence of Barrett's esophagus following endoscopic therapy
- timeFrame
- 1 year
- description
- Measure the number of glandular structures observed with volumetric laser endomicroscopy in patients who remain free of Barrett's esophagus and in those with recurrent disease. Report the mean and standard-deviation of this metric and determine a statistical significant difference using the Student's t-test.
