Flexible Magnifying Endoscopy with Narrow Band Imaging for Diagnosing Uterine Cervical Neoplasms: A Multicenter Prospective Study.

We aimed to investigate the diagnostic ability of magnifying endoscopy with narrow band imaging (ME-NBI) for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or worse (CIN2+). This was a multicenter prospective study. Eligible patients had positive Pap smear results or follow-up high-grade cytology or CIN3 diagnosed in referring hospitals.

Quality Assessment of Endoscopic Forceps Biopsy Samples under Magnifying Narrow Band Imaging for Histological Diagnosis of Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia: A Feasibility Study.

The current standard for diagnosing cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) is colposcopy followed by punch biopsy. We have developed flexible magnifying endoscopy with narrow band imaging (ME-NBI) for the diagnosis of CIN. Here, we investigated the feasibility of targeted endoscopic forceps biopsy (E-Bx) under guidance of ME-NBI for the diagnosis of CIN.

Prediction of postnatal developmental disabilities using the antenatal fetal neurodevelopmental test: KANET assessment.

Objective To assess the usefulness of the antenatal fetal neurodevelopmental test for the prediction of postnatal developmental disabilities. Methods Fetal behavior was assessed with Kurjak's antenatal neurodevelopmental test (KANET) using four-dimensional ultrasound between 28 and 38 weeks of gestation. A score range of 0-5 was characterized as abnormal, from 6 to 9 was considered borderline, and 10-16 was normal.

Flexible magnifying endoscopy with narrow band imaging for the diagnosis of uterine cervical tumors: A cooperative study among gastrointestinal endoscopists and gynecologists to explore a novel microvascular classification system.

Narrow band imaging with magnifying endoscopy (NBI-ME), which is useful for the assessment of micro-vessels, has excellent diagnostic potential for early gastrointestinal epithelial neoplasia. Conventional diagnostic tools for uterine cervical epithelial tumors are still unsatisfactory. An accurate diagnostic tool for uterine cervical epithelial tumors is required to preserve the reproductive ability of young women with uterine cervical tumors.
