Brief summary: The purpose of this study is to assess whether high definition endoscopy with Optic Enhancement can reduce the biopsy number needed per patient for the detection of gastric intestinal metaplasia without the loss of corresponding diagnostic yield

Detailed description: Gastric intestinal metaplasia is regarded as an important premalignant lesion for intestinal type gastric cancer. Currently, the histological assessment of gastric intestinal metaplasia still relies on the biopsies took from five sites that the updated Sydney System recommended. However, the updated Sydney System biopsy protocol needs more biopsy number and procedure time, for it is unable to satisfy the diagnosis of gastric intestinal metaplasia. Optic Enhancement is a novel image-enhanced endoscopy system. Targeted biopsy protocol based on high definition endoscopy with Optic Enhancement will be possible for the diagnosis of gastric intestinal metaplasia. This study aims to compare the diagnostic yield of gastric intestinal metaplasia from high definition endoscopy with Optic Enhancement targeted biopsies and a standard biopsy protocol and assess whether high definition endoscopy with Optic Enhancement can reduce the biopsy number needed per patient for the detection of gastric intestinal metaplasia without the loss of corresponding diagnostic yield.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* patients with dyspeptic symptoms and aged 40 years or older
* or patients with Helicobacter pylori infection, or histologically verified gastric intestinal metaplasia or atrophic gastritis
* or patients with family history of gastric cancer

Exclusion Criteria:

* presence of gastrectomy, acute gastrointestinal bleeding, or known gastric neoplasia
* presence of conditions unsuitable for endoscopy procedure including coagulopathy, impaired cardiopulmonary function , pregnancy or breastfeeding
* inability to provide informed consent

Primary outcomes:
measure: Difference of the detection rate of gastric intestinal metaplasia between high definition endoscopy with Optic Enhancement targeted biopsies and standard endoscopy with standard biopsy protocol in a per-patient analysis
