The symposium will cover basic esophageal pathology, diagnostic and controversial issues at the gastroesophageal junction and adjunctive tools that can be used to assess neoplastic risk in Barrett's esophagus. The keynote speaker is a clinical gastroenterologist who will present new developments in the endoscopic diagnosis and management of Barrett's esophagus. |
