Abstract
Barrett׳s Esophagus (BE) is an important premalignant condition that predisposes to adenocarcinoma and there is evidence that the extent of the Barrett׳s segment correlates with the risk of malignancy. The extent of the endoscopic findings is described by the Prague classification using the Prague C & M criteria (C is the circumferential length and M is the maximal length). The purpose of these criteria is to simplify and standardize endoscopic characterization of the extent and length of BE.
