A longer withdrawal time doesn’t necessarily mean I’m spending more time looking for polyps. It usually indicates that factors such as prep quality, patient condition, or other variables are prolonging the procedure. The best colonoscopies I perform are those with excellent preparation—minimal residual fluid, bubbles, or folds that could interfere with the exam, thus avoiding the need for extended procedure times. Outcomes should be individualized based on the proceduralist’s specific circumstances and the patient’s condition to ensure accurate and effective screening. #ddw2024 #colonoscopy #gastroenterology #coloncancerscreening

Get to know the EsophyX® Z+ Device used during the TIF 2.0 procedure! The EsophyX® Z+ device is used with a standard, flexible gastroscope to rebuild the gastroesophageal valve (GEV) targeting 3 cm in length and a 270° fundoplication depending on the patient’s anatomy.

With DDW 2024 behind us...the planning process for DDW 2025 has already begun. Now is the time to start thinking about what session topics you'd like to see at DDW 2025 in San Diego. As you think about what sessions you'd like ASGE to include in next year's agenda, take some time to review the submission guidelines and start preparing your topic/session ideas for submission by June 19. https://hubs.ly/Q02yJqyG0 #DDW2024 #GIEndoscopy #Endoscopy #Gastroenterology

https://lnkd.in/ei4J2vYB Article title: Radon in water and soil cover in the coastal zone of Issyk-Kul Author(s): Djenbaev BМ; Dzhamanbaeva ZA; Zholboldiev BT; Zhalilova AA; Karmisheva UZh; Zhumaliev TN; Mamatibraimob S Journal: International Journal of Radiology and Radiation Oncology Journal ISSN: 2640-7566 Abstract: The article summarizes the results of the study of the Issyk-Kul coastal zone - exposure dose, total alpha- and beta-activity, radon in the lake water, and soil cover. Our studies have established that radionuclide contamination is mainly natural in some coastal areas (thorium sands of Zhenish and Ak-Terek) and of natural-technogenic nature in the area of Kadzhi-Sai tailing dump. The nature of contamination is spotty, where rocks are enriched and located closer to the soil cover. Gamma-radiation exposure dose rates of the coastal zone of Lake Issyk-Kul by soil types showed that in general at the background level (from 19 ± 3 to 34 ± 6 µR/h) and below the accepted norm. On separate natural-technogenic sites (Kadzhi-Sai tailing dump, thorium sands Zhenish and Ak-Terek) gamma radiation exposure dose rate, total alpha-activity, and isotopic composition are increased from 2 to 8 times compared to background sites.   #Radionuclides #Radon #Activity #Thesoil #Lakes   #XRayRadiography #Ultrasound #ComputedTomography #NuclearMedicine #Peertechz #PeertechzPublications #MagneticResonanceImagingMRI #PositronEmissionTomographyPET #RadiationOncology #ImagingSciences #BreastImaging #CardiovascularImaging #ChestRadiology #DiagnosticImaging #GastrointestinalImaging #GenitourinaryRadiology #Head #Neck #MusculoskeletalRadiology #NeuroimagingAndHeadAndNeck #NeuroRadiology #PediatricImaging #DiagnosticRadiology #InterventionalRadiology #RadiationPhysics #RadiationBiology #CardiopulmonaryImaging #GastrointestinalImaging #GenitourinaryImaging #MusculoskeletalImaging #Neuroradiology #HeadAndNeckImaging #NuclearMedicineAndMolecularImaging #PediatricImaging #VascularAndInterventionalRadiology #WomensImaging #ExternalBeamIrradiation #Brachytherapy #ParticleRadiationTherapy #IntraoperativeRadiationTherapy #StereotacticRadiosurgery #Radiotherapy #ExperimentalWorkInRadiobiology #TumorBiology #RadiationPhysics #Dosimetry #RadiationTreatmentPlanning
