This study is to assess the diagnostic accuracy and precision of the Probe-based Volumetric Laser Endomicroscopy (pVLE) imaging system in detecting dysplasia in BE in both in vivo and ex vivo imaging of Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR) tissue, as compared to standard histopathology
To assess the ability of pVLE to visualize subsurface architecture of EMR tissue, as compared to histology in both in vivo and ex vivo imaging.
