In the absence of formal screening programs in India, it is essential that all elective esophago\u2010gastro\u2010duodenoscopies (EGDs), irrespective of indication, be also considered an opportunity to screen for premalignant lesions. With this premise, we tried to assess the adherence to best practices in the detection of premalignant upper gastro\u2010intestinal lesions (PMUGIL) among endoscopists in India. We also evaluated the adequacy of training, availability of appropriate facilities, and differences between teaching and non\u2010teaching centers.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>We disbursed a survey among endoscopists working in India, through the membership database of the Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopists of India, by email and instant messaging.

The adherence to best practices assessed was lower than the set threshold in all except one parameter in both teaching centers and non\u2010teaching centers.
