NCT01439594

Brief Summary

The goal of this research is to conduct a pilot clinical study to evaluate the potential use of esophageal Optical Frequency Domain Imaging (OFDI) for assessing the success and degree of injury associated with therapeutic radiofrequency ablation techniques.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Feasibility of OFDI Imaging as Determined by Number of Successful Imaging Sessions

    Images will be taken and compared to standard of care biopsy to assess the success and degree of injury associated with radiofrequency ablation techniques. A successful imaging session is defined as any session where the OFDI device was able to take and produce discernible and clear data that is comparable to corresponding biopsy histopathology. It is considered unsuccessful if we were unable to produce OFDI data and/or attain a corresponding biopsy.

    During the OFDI imaging session (about 5 minutes)
