Dear Friends and Colleagues,
It is our pleasure to invite you to the 12th International Symposium
Endoskopie 2009 and the 7th EURO EUS Congress taking place in Berlin
on April 30th – May 2nd 2009..
We are happy to provide you with an update on the entire spectrum of
GI-endoscopy and its interface with gastroenterology as well as other
disciplines, including two days of live demonstrations.
A special highlight has always been Live Demonstrations by local and foreign
experts which practically demonstrate you a wide variety of diagnostic and
therapeutic techniques in the upper and lower GI-tract, the bile ducts and
the pancreas. We are also glad that endoscopy nurses will join us among the
chairpersons as well as in the audience since our cooperation has become
increasingly important.
The Symposium will start with highlights of the live demonstrations followed
by a state-of-the-art-lecture and update discussions on the various fields of GI and pancreatobiliary endoscopy.
The 7th Euro EUS Congress will take place in Berlin, 1st and 2nd of May, 2009
in the unit of Prof Schulz.
Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) has become an integrated part of modern
gastrointestinal endoscopy. The thema of this 7th EURO-EUS meeting will be:
„ENDOSCOPIC ULTRASOUND MEETS THERAPEUTIC ENDOSCOPY“.
One of the goals of the congress will be to show you the complementarity of EUS
& therapeutic endoscopy as for endoscopic mucosal resection or before ERCP.
On the other hand, therapeutic EUS offers an alternative to palliative surgery
when conventional endoscopy failed. But, EUS guided procedures are difficult to
master before the procedures can be integrated into clinical practice.
Interventional EUS guided procedures as EUS guided neurolysis, EUS guided
cysto-gastrostomy, EUS guided hepaticogastrostomy and EUS guided pancreaticobulbo
or gastrostomy will be demonstrated.
We have invited worldwide experts on EUS, they will give state of the art lectures
and will demonstrate the last developments of these technologies during the
Live Demonstrations.
On behalf of the Scientific Committees, we would like to wish you a pleasant stay
and a successful meeting in Berlin. We will try to provide you with an interesting
and stimulating program and also entertain you in the beautiful host city.
With kind regards
Prof. Dr. H.-J. Schulz Dr. M. Giovannini
