Abstract
The gastric mucosa is a glandular epithelium containing projections and indentations such as crypts, so various anatomical structures can be visualised using magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging (M-NBI). If you do not understand what anatomical structure corresponds with the actual image that has been visualised, you cannot make a medical analysis, and the normal gastric fundic gland mucosa and pyloric gland mucosa present totally different magnified endoscopic images (microvascular pattern and microsurface pattern).
