Diagnostic and Therapeutic Procedures in Gastroenterology

About this book

Fifty-five chapters edited by Subbaramiah Sridhar and George Y. Wu, arranged in three parts. The first and largest covers individual procedures and devices: foreign bodies, Barrett's oesophagus, POEM, variceal and non-variceal bleeding, PEG, capsule endoscopy, enteroscopy, stenting, polypectomy, ERCP techniques, pancreatic collections and a run of EUS chapters from FNA to coeliac plexus neurolysis. The second deals with setting up an endoscopy unit, sedation, nursing roles, quality measures and reprocessing, and the third with training and credentialing. Heavily illustrated, it suits trainees and practising endoscopists.
