[ Summary ] |
Recently, ESD has come to be widely performed for treatment of colorectal neoplasias. However, EMR is the main method used for endoscopic resection of colorectal neoplasias. We should understand these devices including high frequency apparatus and especially snares, when learning about EMR. With that in mind, we may acquire basic EMR skills including solution injection, snaring and cutting. As a result, EMR techniques will be improved. |
