OCT是一种很有前途的光学技术，它可以在内窥镜检查过程中对组织进行实时、高分辨率的横断面成像。它已被证明是一种高度敏感和特定的手段来识别SIM的存在。初步研究表明，OCT能够对BE内发生的异型增生进行分级，并有可能辅助浅表恶性肿瘤，特别是鳞状细胞癌的分期。在不久的将来，随着更高分辨率的系统和可用的多普勒功能的出现，OCT系统的能力有望得到改善。
OCT is a promising optical technology that permits real-time, high-resolution, cross-sectional imaging of tissue during endoscopy. It has been shown to be a highly sensitive and specific means of identifying the presence of SIM. Preliminary studies suggest that OCT is capable of grading dysplasia occurring within BE and has the potential to assist with the staging of superficial malignancies, particularly squamous cell cancers. In the near future, the capabilities of OCT systems are expected to improve with systems capable of much higher resolution and with Doppler capability becoming available.
