Discover cutting-edge insights into the identification, diagnosis, and management of flat colorectal neoplasms and dysplasia in both non-IBD and IBD patients. This interactive workshop blends endoscopy expertise with educational science to enhance your clinical decision-making skills. Participants will engage in breakout sessions, utilizing simulated case studies to apply expert knowledge in real-world scenarios. The workshop emphasizes active learning, grounded in proven educational theories, offering a hands-on, immersive experience designed to elevate your clinical practice.

Participants will be able to:

  • Demonstrate the skills to detect, diagnose, and manage flat colorectal neoplasms using predictive frameworks[1] developed during the workshop.
  • Demonstrate the skills to detect, diagnose, and manage flat dysplasia’s in IBD patients using predictive frameworks developed during the workshop.
  • Recognize and manage malignant colorectal polyps using predictive frameworks developed during the workshop.
  • Formulate the steps for complete, safe, and efficacious dynamic inject and cut endoscopic resection of nonpolypoid colorectal lesions using predictive frameworks developed during the workshop.
