About this course
A practical crash course for endoscopists with established therapeutic endoscopy skills. The day develops lesion assessment, dissection technique and complication management through supervised practice on training models.
Learning outcomes
- Develop a lesion-specific resection plan and recognize when to refer.
- Demonstrate controlled dissection, traction and hemostasis on a model.
- Discuss recognition and escalation of adverse events and interpret specimen findings.
