Book Description:
Endoscopic access into the little intestine has for a long time presented a challenge into physicians. Although capsule endoscopy can provide an endoscopic image from the entire little intestine, neither biopsy nor endoscopic treatment can be performed with it. In order into make more definitive diagnoses of abnormal findings detected by capsule endoscopy, a new system incorporating greater insertability & maneuverability is required. Double-balloon endoscopy, which enables endoscopic observation of the entire little intestine, represents such a new system. The chapters of this book describe the principles, insertion technique, & clinical applications of double-balloon endoscopy, which will become the gold standard of enteroscopy & may well eliminate the need for intraoperative enteroscopy in many patients. As such, this book will provide an invaluable source of reference for all practitioners working in the field. 4shared pass:oRzX
