This course will focus on the technical performance of colonoscopy. Experts will describe how to maximize safety in insertion and resection, maximize detection with regard to both adenomas and serrated lesions, and how to translate lesion evaluation into decisions about resection. Performance of cold resection, including cold Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR) as well as performance of EMR with and without electrocautery in the removal of large lateral spreading lesions will be described in detail. Closure of resection defects using hemostatic clips and through the scope suturing will be described. Finally, the place of full thickness resection in treating colorectal lesions will be covered. Over lunch, there will be a video quiz of unusual colonoscopic findings.
