LIVE FROM UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO!
ENDOSCOPY AND NOVEL TECHNOLOGIESCenter for Endoscopic Research & Therapeutics (CERT)
April 11-12, 2014
This course is endorsed by the American
Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy
Endorsed by the AGA Institute
CONFERENCE DESCRIPTION
The field of endoscopy burgeoned from the ability to look at gross lining with the scope camera to broaden
out to myriad different technologies using the scope as the vehicle. Visualization has gone beyond looking
at the surface to assessing details at even a microscopic level with endomicroscopy. Diagnostics have
improved with improved tissue acquisition in previously challenging areas in the pancreaticobiliary system
with ERCP, cholangioscopy, advanced imaging techniques and EUS FNA. Surgeons and oncologists rely on
endoscopist increasingly for appropriate diagnosis and staging. Previously surgically treated benign and
malignant diseases are now treated endoscopically, including pseudocyst drainage, endoscopic resection
and ablation. The lines between surgery and endoscopy are blurred with the entertainment of transluminal
surgery. All of these new frontiers of endoscopy are rapidly evolving. This course will outline where
standard practices in endoscopy are currently and how new innovations may enhance or revolutionize
endoscopy practice in the future. A series of lectures, live case demonstrations, and hands-on tutorials
will be conducted by an expert international endoscopy faculty.
LEARNING OBJECTIVESAt the conclusion of this educational activity, participants will be able to:
• Implement standard guidelines for screening and surveillance for Barrett’s esophagus and colon
cancer in practice;
• Discuss the importance of detailed white light examination and understand roles of digital
imaging, chromoendoscopy, endomicroscopy, accessory cameras, and other advanced imaging
in detection of luminal lesions;
• Identify the principles of safe and effective polypectomy and endoscopic resections;
• Describe the diagnostic options in tissue acquisition in pancreaticobiliary lesions;
• Discuss the management of pancreatitis and cholangitis and roles of endoscopic procedures in
these diseases.
Please join us for what promises to be an informative and thought-provoking conference!
TARGET AUDIENCEThis activity has been planned for Gastroenterologists, Endoscopists, Surgeons, Oncologists, and GI
fellows committed to the advancement of endoscopy.
