Core Tip	Surgery and chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for esophageal cancer are more invasive than endoscopic resection. However, early esophageal cancer is often asymptomatic and difficult to detect at an early stage. Uniform periodic endoscopy is unrealistic. This is a challenging problem. Regular endoscopy after CRT is also important, and if detected early, a complete cure can be expected with less burdensome endoscopic treatment. Currently, endoscopy is the main diagnostic method, but the hope is that new and less burdensome diagnostic methods will be established to ensure early treatment.
