Praktisch
Dear colleagues,
We would like to welcome you to our fourth hands-on training in ESD and advanced resection techniques in the gastrointestinal tract in Leuven. ESD techniques are increasingly being used in Europe with a growing need for intensive individual training. We have developed a training programme to manage endoscopic submucosal dissections in a realistic environment using living porcine models. With this programme we aspire that you will acquire the necessary expertise to handle ESD in oesophagus, stomach and colon.
On Thursday morning we will start the workshop with a state-of-the-art theoretical lecture about treatment plans for lesions and technical tips and tricks. Hereafter we will start the hands-on training in the living pig model. We have the pleasure of outstanding ESD experts joining the course to assist you in a one-on-one training in the animal lab. This will be a unique learning opportunity for you.
The organising committee with Raf Bisschops and Ingrid Demedts and the guest faculty with Jacques Bergman (Amsterdam, The Netherlands), Torsten Beyna (Düsseldorf, Germany), Noriko Suzuki (London, United Kingdom) and Philippe Leclercq (Liège, Belgium) look forward to welcoming you.
