Digestive Endoscopy 2016; : – Letters, Techniques and Images Linked color imaging enhances gastric cancer in gastric intestinal metaplasia Gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM) is a high-risk condition for intestinal- type gastric cancer; however, there is a limitation for detection of GIM using white light imaging (WLI). Image-enhanced endoscopy (IEE) is (a) (b) more advantageous than WLI for optical diagnosis of GIM.1 Linked color imaging (LCI; FUJIFILM Co., Tokyo, Japan) was newly developed for advanced IEE and enables visualization of red lesions that appear redder and whitish red lesions that appear whiter during routine endoscopy.2 GIM is observed as a lavender color that is distinguishable from the circumferential mucosa without GIM by using LCI (Fig. 1). We speculate (c) (d) that the lavender color is the same as the bluish–whitish patchy areas including a light blue crest or a marginal turbid band in narrow band Figure 2 Case of gastric cancer detected by linked color imaging.3,
