Screening of esophageal cancer

• Esophageal: screen for Barrett’s w/ endoscopy if multiple risk factors (eg, hiatal hernia, age ≥50, male, chronic GERD, obese, smoking, FHx). Repeat q3–5y if Barrett’s. • Gastric: typically not screened in U.S. More common in regions w/ higher incidence (eg, Japan, Korea, Chile) w/ endoscopy or barium radiographs.
