First Year Fellows Endoscopy Course (August 1-2) Live and Virtual | 2025-Pathology and Terminology

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video appears to be a comprehensive discussion designed for medical trainees about best practices in endoscopy, particularly in writing detailed and accurate endoscopy reports. It emphasizes the importance of documentation so that other physicians, such as co-fellows and surgeons, fully understand the procedure outcomes and findings for future patient care. The speaker discusses several key classification systems used in endoscopy: LA grading for esophagitis, the Paris classification for superficial neoplastic lesions, and the Prague classification for describing Barrett's esophagus. Additionally, the presentation touches on the clinical importance of identifying features such as erosions, Mallory-Weiss tears, and Barrett's esophagus during procedures. Techniques like narrowband imaging (NBI) are highlighted as tools for distinguishing between types of lesions and understanding their anatomical context. The session encourages trainees to actively cultivate their skills in recognizing and describing various gastrointestinal pathologies, using all senses during procedures, and maintaining clear and helpful communication through their reports.
