Overview
The diagnosis of Barrett's esophagus is made on endoscopy, when at least 2 of the following diagnostic criteria are met which include presence of columnar epithelium in the distal esophagus and the presence of intestinal metaplasia in the columnar epithelium lining the distal esophagus.
Diagnostic Study of Choice
- The diagnosis of Barrett's esophagus is made when at least 2 of the following diagnostic criteria are met:[1][2]
- There is should be a documentation of columnar epithelium lining the distal esophagus while doing the endoscopy.
- Intestinal metaplasia must be present in the columnar epithelium on the Barrett's esophagus biopsy specimen taken during endoscopy.
- Endoscopy reveals salmon-pink colored extensions of mucosa that grow into the esophagus above the esophageal gastric junction.
- Every 2cm, four quadrant biopsies of the Barrett's esophagus mucosa are taken and submitted to pathology for dysplasia.
