6. Subjects of high surgical risk, in which any delay in the esophagectomy surgery may, in the option of the PI, increase the risk for to Adverse event (AE) / Serious Adverse event (SAE).
7. Presence of esophageal stricture preventing passage of the endoscope or investigational catheter .
8. Any anatomical abnormality (such as but not limited to, esophageal dilation) that, at the discretion of the investigator may preclude the laser ablation.

12. Any disorder, which in the investigator's opinion might jeopardize participant's safety or compliance with the Clinical Investigation Plan (CIP).

2. Previous radiotherapy in the chest.
3. Previous Endoscopic Mucosal resection (EMR) / Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD) in the esophagus.
4. Subjects currently undergoing or subject that had previous ablative therapy within the esophagus (e.g., Photodynamic Therapy (PDT), Multipolar Electrocoagulation (MPEC), Argon Plasma Coagulation (APC), laser treatment, radiofrequency ablation (RFA).

20. Known history of unresolved drug or alcohol dependency that would limit ability to comprehend or follow instructions, uncontrolled psychiatric illness (including recent inpatient psychiatric treatment, psychosis, moderate to severe depression, illicit substance abuse) or any psychiatric diagnosis which in the opinion of the investor would preclude participation in the study.
