This study evaluated the association between the EIS–APC interval and clinical outcomes.

Recent Development of Endo‐hepatology
ABSTRACT Endo‐hepatology is a rapidly evolving field encompassing endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of hepatobiliary diseases, primarily using endoscopic ultrasound (EUS). Since its conceptualization in 2012, the field has expanded dramatically alongside advances in interventional EUS. A landmark 2024 review broadened the concept to include endoscopic

ABSTRACT Objectives Gel immersion can provide a stable immersion environment during endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR). However, its application in superficial esophageal squamous lesions remains limited. In this study, we evaluated a gel immersion EMR (GI‐EMR) technique in which submucosal injection was intentionally performed before snaring for ...
