Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) has transformed the endoscopy field in significant ways in the past three decades. EUS is intellectually stimulating, it is technically and cognitively challenging, and it includes an array of proven diagnostic and therapeutic options that gastroenterologists can use to care for their patients. This course will create great value for physicians and health care professionals who are already familiar with EUS as well as those who are just beginning to incorporate EUS into their practice, including low and high-volume centers – keeping in mind that EUS teams also generally include nurses, endoscopy technicians, anesthesia support staff, vendors and pathologists.

Designed for gastroenterologists, advanced endoscopy GI fellows and the aforementioned allied health care professionals, ASGE’s Masterclass EUS will provide participants with an excellent overview of the fundamentals and best practices in EUS. In addition, this course will feature world-renowned experts addressing the business and operational aspects of running a successful EUS practice – as well as the field’s emerging technologies, techniques and trends.

If you want to be on the cutting edge of EUS, don’t miss this exceptional opportunity.

Although all browsers continually roll out new versions and updates, we currently recommend using Chrome for the best functionality when accessing GI Leap. Please note that Internet Explorer is not a supported browser. Follow these tips for better streaming and viewing of ASGE videos:

1. Close other applications and browser tabs. This decreases the load on memory so your computer or other device can focus on streaming.
2. Use a 5 GHz frequency if your router supports it. The common 2.4 GHz frequency is used by household appliances, so is more crowded. Avoiding it is like getting into the carpool lane on a freeway: smoother sailing.
3. Use Ethernet instead of Wi-Fi if possible but GI LEAP is built with Wi-Fi in mind. 
4. Monitor your internet connection. If your ISP has promised you 5MBps and you are getting only 1MBps, it's time for a phone call to your internet provider to sort that out.
