Gastrointestinal and Pancreatico-Biliary Diseases: Advanced Diagnostic and Therapeutic Endoscopy

Abstract

Endoscopic diagnosis of gastrointestinal early neoplasia is divided into three steps: detection, characterization, and preoperative diagnosis in order to determine the proper treatment strategy. In this chapter we describe the technique and the knowledge in order to achieve curative treatment based on the most updated scientific evidence regarding early gastric cancer and duodenal neoplasia. In the field of early gastric cancer, substantial evidence has accumulated for constructing guidelines.

If every endoscopist can learn the content in this chapter, the correct and precise diagnosis can be made for the safe and curative treatment of early gastrointestinal neoplasia.
