episode 2 Uncle Pat Visits the Gastroenterologist

Uncle Pat learns that he has a hiatal hernia and long-segment, non-dysplastic Barrett's esophagus. Dr. Appannagari introduces TissueCypher, a test that can provide a personalized risk score for an individual's chance of progression to high-grade dysplasia or esophageal adenocarcinoma. We learn that Uncle Pat's TissueCypher score was low, meaning he is unlikely to progress to esophageal cancer in the next five years. Based on Uncle Pat's symptoms, endoscopy results, and TissueCypher risk score, Dr. Appannagari recommends a surveillance endoscopy every three years and medication to control the acid reflux.
