Rebecca Fitzgerald on biomarker risk stratification with capsule sponge in the surveillance of Barrett’s oesophagus

Early detection of oesophageal adenocarcinoma improves outcomes. Patients with the precursor lesion, Barrett's oesophagus, are recommended to undergo regular endoscopic surveillance, a process that can be burdensome for patients and health services.  Professor Rebecca Fitzgerald's team have developed a tool that may be able to improve Barrett's surveillance. She joins us to discuss her recent prospective real-world implementation study of capsule sponge risk stratification in Barrett’s oesophagus surveillance in the UK.
