This is a study intended to utilize endoscopic biopsies from gastric precancerous/ cancerous lesions and adjacent normal mucosa to characterize tissue biochemical composition changes as determined by mass spectrometry lipidomic/ proteomic profiling, and correlate these changes with histopathologic results, and Raman spectra as determined by SPECTRA IMDxâ„¢. The study site will be National University Hospital.
