Barrett’s esophagus. (a) In Barrett’s esophagus, CLE is able to visualize goblet cells (arrows) by their black mucin inclusion. A double contour can be seen on the villous surface, corresponding to the brush border. (b) In another area (and deeper tissue section), crowding of irregular glands, irregular vessels (arrow), and leakage of fluorescein indicate the presence of neoplasia. Edge length is 475 μm.
