Current Status of Research on Endoscopic Assessment of Risk of Gastric Cancer / 胃肠病学

ABSTRACT

The prognosis of gastric cancer is closely related to the stage, which generally follows the evolution of gastritis and precancerous lesion of gastric cancer. Serology, endoscopy and pathology can be used for gastric cancer risk assessment. Kimura-Takemoto classification, Kyoto classification of gastritis and endoscopic grading of gastric intestinal metaplasia can determine the scope of atrophy and intestinal metaplasia under endoscopy, and can be used for risk assessment of gastric cancer. This article reviewed the current status of research on endoscopic assessment of the risk of gastric cancer.
