Beyond diagnosis, RCM can be used for pre-surgical and intraop­erative margin mapping, evaluating non-surgical treatment response, and monitoring for cancer recurrence.

There are some important limitations of reflectance confocal microscopy. As previously mentioned, reflectance confocal microscopes are limited to a depth of 250 mm. This impedes the assessment of hyper­trophic and deep nodular lesions, as well as lesions on volar skin where

increasing body of evidence supporting its use, it is inevitable that reflectance confocal microscopy will become widespread in clinical prac­tice. It is important for pathologists and clinicians to be familiar with this technology and the interpretation of RCM images as its adoption increases.

cancerous skin. A handheld probe with a disposable electrode is applied to the skin. The probe contains pins that penetrate the stratum corneum and measure impedance at frequencies between 1 kHz and 2.5 MHz at four depths in 10 permutations. Impedance at lower frequencies depends on the extracellular environment, while at higher frequencies, it depends on the intracellular environment, the extracellular environment, and the properties of cell membranes. The 150 mV voltage and 75 µA current are

imperceptible to the patient and the entire study takes a few seconds to perform. A score from 0 to 10 is calculated and a dichotomous negative or positive result is displayed on a touch screen.
A multicenter, prospective, blinded study of 1951 patients used EIS on lesions determined to be suspicious by dermatologists and scheduled to be excised. The EIS system yielded an observed sensitivity of 100% for non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC). The sensitivity and specificity for melanoma were 96.6% and 34.4%, respectively.
19
EIS has not been well studied for other lesions such as lentigines and EIS may incorrectly classify seborrheic keratosis as malignant.
20
Further work is required to determine if EIS is a ble to differentiate between differ­ent subtypes of skin cancer. While the specificity of EIS and its ability to distinguish between different pathologies is not as great as that of OCT or RCM, its advantage is its speed and simple interpretation.

Future Directions

The three technologies discussed in this chapter, OCT, RCM, and EIS, have been developed over decades. Their safety and efficacy have been estab­lished in international, multicenter, prospective studies. More research is necessary to create and standardize better diagnostic algorithms. The capa­bilities of these devices will continue to improve. It will be incumbent on clinicians and pathologists to learn to use these systems, interpret their results, and incorporate them into patient care. While histology will remain the gold standard, it is inevitable that in vivo microscopy will fill the space between visual inspectionand biopsy and will spread beyondresearch insti­tutions into clinics everywhere.

Upper Gastrointestinal Tract Chapter

5
Daniel Schmolze∗and Vani J. A. Konda
†,‡

Introduction

In vivo microscopy of the upper gastrointestinal tract is highly developed, particularly for the esophagus. FDA-approved devices are available and are being used clinically, validated diagnostic criteria have been published, and in vivo microscopy training has become incorporated into some gastroen­terology training programs.
The dominant technologies are optical coherence tomography (OCT) and confocal laser endomicroscopy (CLE). Endomicroscopy has been suc­cessfully applied to a broad range of applications in the upper gastrointesti­nal tract, including Barrett’s esophagus, Gastric neoplasia, and H. Pylori gastritis.
This chapter will provide a broad overview of the major advances and current state of the art with a focus on the esophagus and stomach.

Esophagus

In vivo microscopy has one of the most robust experiences in Barrett’s esophagus (BE). Barrett’s esophagus, which is the replacement of the nor­mal esophageal squamous lining with specialized intestinal metaplasia, is a risk factor for the development of esophageal adenocarcinoma. Patients with multiple risk factors for esophageal cancer are screened for Barrett’s esophagus with an upper endoscopy. Those patients who have BE undergo routine endoscopic surveillance every three to five years to monitor for the development o f dysplasia. High-grade dysplasia (HGD) and intramucosal carcinoma are amenable to endoscopic therapy, which offers minimally invasive approaches to either cure or prevent esophageal cancer. Despite these a dvances in endoscopy therapeutic strategies, a challenge remains in identifying who may be harboring dysplasia when early neoplastic lesions are often subtle. While the standard of care approach is to perform biopsies of visible lesions and then four-quadrant biopsies at every one to two cen­timeters of Barrett’s segment to assess for occult neoplasia, this approach is subject to both sampling error as well as poor adherence.
Endomicroscopy enables the endoscopist to map out more of the esophagus than would be achieved by histological biopsies alone. Thus, tissue acquisition may potentially be optimized to take “smarter” biopsies that have a higher yield of pathology and decrease the number of random negative surveillance biopsies. Endomicroscopy platforms that have been widely used in the esophagus include confocallaser endomicroscopy (CLE) and optical coherence tomography (OCT)-based technologies.
Confocal laser endomicroscopy providesreal-time microscopic imag­ing of the esophageal epithelium down to a resolution between 0.7 and 1.0 microns. CLE requires the use of a contrast agent in the gastrointestinal tract, and the most commonly used agent is intravenous fluorescein. Imag­ing characteristics have been classified to enable differentiation between squamous epithelium, cardia, Barrett’s esophagus, and neoplasia for each probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE) and endoscope-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (eCLE). variable depth of imaging from 0 to 250 microns, whereas the pCLE plat­form has a fixed depth of imaging of around 65 microns for the probe used

most commonly in the esophagus. In squamous epithelium, visualization of the fine, flat cells may be appreciated as well as occasional interspersed interpapillary capillary loops. In non-dysplastic Barrett’s esophagus, there is a regular villiform architecture with the columnar lined epithelium with mucin-filled goblet cells (see Figure 1). In gastric cardia, typically there are round glandular structures with occasional vessels, particularly in the deeper layers. Areas suspicious for high-grade dysplasia or adenocarci­noma demonstrate disorganization or loss of that architecture, black or darker cells, and more irregular vessels. Additional criteria proposed to differentiate dysplasia from non-dysplastic Barrett’s esophagus include two or more of the following: epithelial surface appears saw-tooth, gob­let cells are not equidistant, glands are unequal in size and shape, cells are enlarged, or cells are irregular and not equidistant from one another (see Figure 2).
