Excellent review. As recommended I don’t do ES before placing biliary stent in malignant obstruction. What’s your practice? @amolbapaye @drkeithsiau @BilalMohammadMD #GIX

In patients with upfront resectable left-sided pancreatic cancer, long-term results from the DIPLOMA trial show that minimally invasive and open left pancreatectomy yield similar overall survival and disease-free survival. https://t.co/RnIyADrYbI

🧐Can better visuals mean better detection? ✅RCT compared 3D vs 2D colonoscopy in >300 patients. 3D imaging enhanced anatomical detail, but did it help find more adenomas? 🤔📸 🔗 https://t.co/ALmP6Imb9J
