Core Tip	Gastric intestinal metaplasia (IM) is a precursor to gastric adenocarcinoma. There are no North American consensus recommendations as to which patients might benefit from esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) with biopsy for screening or surveillance for gastric IM. Patients who smoke or have the endoscopic finding of atrophic gastritis are more likely to have gastric IM and should have screening gastric biopsies during EGD. Patients with gastric IM are at increased risk for developing gastric dysplasia and cancer, and surveillance EGD with gastric biopsies in these patients might be reasonable.
