About this trial
This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Endometrial Cancer focused on measuring NBI, ENDOMETRIUM, FALLOPIAN TUBE, OVARY, PERITONEUM, Surgery, Lung, Pancreatic, Esophageal, thorascopic, laparoscopic, robotic, 10-180

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
pts having a thorascopic, laparoscopic or robotic procedure
The procedure will begin with washings (peritoneal) and two assessments of the extent of peritoneal disease. First, a four quadrant inspection of the peritoneal cavity under white light, this is the standard of care assessment. Then, a repeat four quadrant inspection of the peritoneal cavity under NBI will be done, this is the only experimental component of the design. White light imaging will always be done first, followed by NBI. For those patients scheduled for thorascopic procedures: The procedure will begin with sampling of pleural effusions when clinically indicated. Then there will be two assessments of the pleural surfaces. First, an inspection of the pleural cavity under white light, this is the standard of care assessment. Then, a repeat inspection under NBI, this is the only experimental component of the design. White light imaging will always be done first, followed by NBI.
