Full Description
In this issue of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America, guest editors Drs. John Pandolfino and Peter J. Kahrilas bring their considerable expertise to the topic of Esophagology in the Endoscopy Suite. Top experts cover recent, significant strides in esophagology, many of which are based in the endoscopy suite. This issue examines new developments in motility evaluation, reflux testing, and visual inspection done during, or in conjunction with, endoscopy to detect and stratify clinical esophageal disorders. Articles also discuss endoscopy-based therapeutics for Barrett's esophagus, reflux disease, and motility disorders.
Contains 12 relevant, practice-oriented topics including the esophageal mucosa: clues to underlying pathology; Barrett's evaluation and ablation; motility assessment during endoscopy: the CARS score; endoscopic management of reflux; stricture management; and more
Provides in-depth clinical reviews on esophagology in the endoscopy suite, offering actionable insights for clinical practice
Presents the latest information on this timely, focused topic under the leadership of experienced editors in the field. Authors synthesize and distill the latest research and practice guidelines to create clinically significant, topic-based reviews
