Friday Courses
Receive in-depth updates on the latest in GI and hepatology, endoscopy, and practice management when you attend one or more of the optional Friday courses. Four courses are offered: three half-day courses, the GI Pathophysiology Course, the What’s New in GI Pharmacology Course, and the Practice Management Summit; and one full-day course, the ASGE Endoscopy Course.
ASGE Endoscopy Course
Innovative Practices for the Endoscopist of Today, Tomorrow, and Beyond
Friday, October 20, 2023 | 8:00 am – 4:45 pm
Course Directors: Juan Carlos Bucobo, MD, FASGE, Vaishali Patel, MD, MHS, and Renee L. Williams, MD, MHPE, FACG
This comprehensive course aims to provide a practical approach to understanding the most updated guidelines focusing on endoscopy and innovative techniques at the forefront of gastroenterology. Sessions and faculty were thoughtfully curated to represent a variety of clinical backgrounds and perspectives on the most up-to-date management of important digestive disease states and the use of endoscopic techniques. Topics will include post-ERCP pancreatitis, adverse events in EGD and EUS, management of cholangitis and hilar obstruction, the continued potential uses of AI in endoscopy, importance of health equity in the endoscopic suite, and the application of entry level and career learning using competency based medical education models.
Participate in-person or virtually from home or office. You'll still receive the world-class educational experience that is the hallmark of ASGE, including the ability to participate in real-time Q&A sessions. Course materials will be available before the start of the course; upon completion you will receive access to the recording of each presentation along with pdf files of presentations in GI Leap. Looking to access CME and ABIM MOC credit, then plan your participation in this program so you can earn both of these valuable credits. We look forward to your participation at this hybrid event.
