Barret´s oesophagus - gastric metaplasia in the lower part of the oesphagus, resulting from a longstanding reflux disease - can be very short, only a few centimeters. In the two first pictures, a short Barret is seen. The third picture shows the reason for the reflux, a hiatal hernia.

The Best Image Library in the World!

That is what we would like Gastrolab Image Library and Endoscopic Archives to be.
Perhaps We can achieve this together? Many of You have ecxellent endoscopic images just waiting for publication. When published they can be an invaluable resource for young endoscopists and for gastroenterologic education. Images published here can freely be used for noncommercial purposes.
So, please email Your images here
glabinfo@gmail.com together with a short caption, a notice that our site is permitted to publish them and information if You want a copyright sign © together with You email address (in which case possible commercial publishers can contact You to get permission to publish Your images).
