ASGE International Sampler (On-Demand)-Upper GI and Small Bowel

Video Transcription

Video Summary

Dr. Uzma Siddiqui, Professor of Medicine at the University of Chicago, presented several abstracts related to the upper GI tract and small bowel at a medical conference. One abstract focused on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to detect and classify gastric lesions. The AI system showed promise in detecting cancerous lesions, but struggled with non-cancerous lesions. Two other abstracts explored methods to improve small bowel enteroscopy. One study utilized a flexible overtube to facilitate scope passage, while the other used a motorized spiral enteroscopy device, both showing positive results. Other abstracts discussed long-term outcomes of endoscopic resections for early gastric cancer and duodenal neuroendocrine tumors, as well as different approaches to upper GI bleeding. Additionally, there were abstracts on a technique called G-POM to improve gastric outflow and a comparison of traditional and partially covered duodenal stents.
