Summary:
Colorectal cancer and inflammatory bowel disease are increasingly recognized as major healthcare challenges for the twenty-first century. Screening and treatment via colonoscopy has become established as the most effective strategy in evaluating bowel abnormalities and reducing mortality from colorectal cancer. Able colonoscopists are now much in demand as the focus shifts from the development of new techniques to enhancing the efficiency and quality of procedures. In this volume, the editors have assembled a team of the world's leading experts to provide an overview of training, equipment and the clinical usefulness of colonoscopy. The text serves as a detailed manual of procedures, extensively illustrated with diagrams and photographs, and contains information on teaching colonoscopy and setting up a colonoscopy suite. This comprehensive book will be invaluable to the experienced colonoscopist, and a useful resource for all those working in any endoscopy unit.
