Brief Summary

inety-three patients participated; a total of 28 SCs were detected in the pharynx and esophagus. The detection rates of DF-NBI and CM-NBI for SC were 82% and 71%, respectively. The lower limit of the 90% confidence interval for differences between the detection rates exceeded the noninferiority threshold. Although not significantly different, the other diagnostic values tended to be higher for DF-NBI than CM-NBI. The results of questionnaires answered by endoscopists showed DF-NBI received a significantly higher or nearly significantly higher evaluation than CM-NBI, excepting a single question.
