Third Space Endoscopy | September 2021-Webinar Recording: EUS Around the World--Focus on New Technology and Techniques

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The webinar titled "EOS Around the World: Focus on New Technology and Techniques" hosted by ASGE showcases new advancements in interventional endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS). Dr. Anthony Teo discusses EUS devices, including stent design characteristics, EUS-guided drainage procedures, and ongoing trials comparing EUS interventions. Dr. Sandeep Laktakia covers unmet needs and new technologies in interventional EUS, discussing topics like biliary and pancreatic duct intervention, tumor ablation, direct endoscopic necrosectomy, and portal hypertension.<br /><br />Dr. Teo specifically focuses on stents for interventions in the US, such as LAMS and tubular stents in colorectal diagnostics. He mentions the challenges with stent migration and the need for longer stents to prevent this issue. Dr. Teo introduces two new devices, a multi-pronged FNA needle and endosound technology that converts any endoscope into an EUS scope.<br /><br />Dr. Laktakia highlights the need for advancements in managing endopathology. He discusses various procedures, emphasizing the need for further studies and advancements. The speakers acknowledge both the potential benefits and risks of the new devices and techniques presented.<br /><br />The webinar also includes a Q&A session where the speakers address questions about the long-term use of stents in benign gastric outlet obstruction and concerns and benefits of the new devices showcased.<br /><br />The webinar is supported by educational programming from Olympus and is available for viewing on ASGE's online learning platform, GILeap, which offers access to additional resources and evaluation forms. The moderators for the webinar are Dr. Vivek Khol and Dr. Ji Bang.
