Linked Color Imaging vs White Light Imaging for Detection of Gastric Cancer Precursors

Linked Color Imaging (LCI) is a form of image enhanced endoscopy that uses a laser endoscopic system that acquires images by simultaneously using narrow-band wavelength light and white light in an appropriate balance. This enhances slight color differences in the red region of the mucosa.

White Light Imaging (WLI) uses conventional white light that encompasses all bandwidths of light to illuminate areas of interest to obtain endoscopic images.
