Summary:
To assess the effect of ablative therapy (Photodynamic Therapy or Radiofrequency ablation
) on Barrett's Esophagus
Detailed description:
To assess the effect of ablation therapy on Barrett's esophagus. Proposal Ablation
therapy is an FDA approved treatment to decrease cancer risk in Barrett's esophagus
mucosa. This is being performed in our Barrett's Esophagus Unit on a regular basis.
However, the longterm outcomes of this therapy is not established and there are patients
who have been treated who later re-develop Barrett's mucosa. This study will allow us
store tissue samples that can later be used to assess the effect of ablative therapy on
Barrett's esophagus.
