Abstract Background  For diagnosing gastric cancer, differences in the diagnostic performance between endocytoscopy with narrowband imaging and magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging have not been reported. We aimed to clarify these differences by analyzing diagnoses made by endoscopists in Japan. Methods  This single-center retrospective cohort study used 106 cancerous and 106 non-cancerous images obtained via both modalities (total, 424 images) for diagnosis. Sixty-one endoscopists with varying experience levels from 45 institutions were included. Diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values were evaluated to determine the diagnostic performance of each modality and compared using the Mann–Whitney U test. Results  Among all endoscopists, diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value were higher with endocytoscopy with narrow-band imaging than with magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging (percentage [95% confidence interval]: 78.8% [76.4–83.0%] versus 72.2% [69.3–73.6%], p
