DOI: 10.1136/flgastro-2025-103257
Abstract: Objectives Oesophageal adenocarcinoma (OAC) has a poor prognosis as patients typically present with late-stage disease. Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) can lead to Barrett’s oesophagus (BO), the only known precursor to OAC. Detecting patients with BO… read more here.
