The article presents a discussion on the diagnosis of the superficial esophageal cancer through the use of high-magnification endoscopy. It mentions that advancements in the technique of endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) have allowed for a safer and less invasive excision of esophageal muscosal lesions. It offers details on the classification of intrapapillary capillary loop changes on esophageal mucosa and cancer infiltration depth.
