Abstract

SIGNIFICANCE: Endoscopic screening for esophageal cancer (EC) may enable early cancer diagnosis and treatment. While optical microendoscopic technology has shown promise in improving specificity, the limited field of view () significantly reduces the ability to survey large areas efficiently in EC screening.
