* Covers a revolutionary technology that provides endoscopists for
the first time with information about living cells in humans
Endomicroscopy is a newly developed diagnostic tool which enables in
vivo microscopy with subcellular resolution during ongoing endoscopy
in the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract. Thus, endomicroscopy
is a revolutionary technology because it provides the endoscopists
for the first time with information about living cells in humans.
Endoscopy and pathology are no longer separate subjects and thus
endomicroscopy leads to a close interaction between endoscopist and
pathologist.
This Atlas of Endomicroscopy is the first book dealing with the new
insights of endomicroscopy and provides an overview about the
development, the requirements, the technique, current indications and
further possibilities of endomicroscopy.
