Improving Operator Depth Vision in Gastrointestinal Endoscopy: A Pilot Study of a New Three‐dimensional Imaging System

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and aims Traditional two‐dimensional (2D) gastrointestinal endoscopy lacks depth perception, leading to potential diagnostic errors. This study evaluates a novel software‐based three‐dimensional (3D) endoscopy system that converts 2D images into 3D, compatible with existing endoscopes.

Endoscopic Step‐up Approach for Walled‐off Necrosis After Acute Pancreatitis

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This review outlines current interventional strategies for treating symptomatic walled‐off necrosis (WON) after necrotizing pancreatitis. Mortality from acute pancreatitis has improved, but late mortality, particularly from infected necrosis, remains a challenge. WON requires invasive treatment in cases of infection or symptoms.
