The video is a presentation on Barrett's esophagus given as part of a webinar series sponsored by the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endocrinology Medtronic. The presenters are Dr. Stuart Speckler and Dr. Sachin Wan. The presentation covers topics such as screening and surveillance for Barrett's esophagus, endoscopic eradication therapy, and the risk factors associated with Barrett's esophagus. They discuss the current guidelines and indications for screening and surveillance, as well as the appropriate management for patients with Barrett's esophagus. The use of endoscopic procedures such as endoscopic mucosal resection and radiofrequency ablation for the treatment of Barrett's esophagus is also discussed. The presenters highlight the importance of accurate T-staging and the need for high-resolution white light endoscopy for screening and surveillance. They emphasize the importance of confirming the diagnosis of Barrett's esophagus by an expert GI pathologist, as well as the need for thorough patient education on the risks, benefits, and alternatives to endoscopic eradication therapy. The presenters also discuss the challenges and limitations of current surveillance practices, such as the risk of missed cancers and the recurrence of neoplasia and metaplasia after endoscopic therapy. They conclude by discussing the recently published guidelines and quality indicators for endoscopic eradication therapy.
