Novel Technology To Improve Safety Of ESD In Western Setting

Intra-procedural and delayed bleed have been significant risk factors in ESD leading to increased complications thereby steepening the learning curve especially in Western settings. In this video we demonstrate the Olympus EVIS X1 endoscopy system with its novel Red Dichromatic Imaging (RDI) which enhances the visibility of deep blood vessels and bleeding sources.The video clearly demonstrates both the above advantages of RDI. We also demonstrate the use of dual knife with its tip withdrawn and using spray/swift coagulation can result in effective haemostasis thereby minimising instrument exchange and reducing the risk of losing visibility of the bleeding point.
