Less is more: thousands skip unnecessary cancer scans in landmark study

This study follows over 3,000 people with low-risk Barrett's esophagus who have stopped having routine endoscopic surveillance, as recommended by new guidelines. Researchers will track them for at least 10 years to see if stopping these scopes leads to a rise in serious esophageal cancer cases. The goal is to confirm that skipping unnecessary procedures is safe and reduces patient burden.
