Abstract

New endoscopic technologies have been developed to diagnose and to assess the severity and extension of disease in patients with IBD. Vascular pattern can be more easily observed in detail using high-resolution endoscopy (HRE); thus, endoscopic remission can be strictly defined especially in patients with UC. Although narrow band imaging (NBI) is useful to detect polyps and adenoma, it is unclear whether NBI can be an alternative device to chromoendoscopy in IBD. Therefore, NBI with magnification endoscopy can be used to assess extension/spread of dysplasia, whereas NBI cannot be recommended as an alternative device to chromoendoscopy. Magnification chromocolonoscopy and endocytoscopy will be alternative devices to histological examination in the future.
