Narrow band imaging and multiband imaging.

NBI and MBI may enhance the diagnosis and characterization of mucosal lesions in the GI tract, particularly as adjunctive techniques to magnification endoscopy. Standardization of image characterization, further image-to-pathology correlation and validation, and the impact of these technologies on patient outcomes are necessary before endorsing the use of NBI and MBI in the routine practice of GI endoscopy.
