The original WEO High-Q program has been converted to the LIVE High-Q virtual format. It was successfully launched in November 27–28, 2020, transmitting from Bogota, Colombia.
Under the direction of Fabian Emura (Colombia) and Prateek Sharma (USA), and having William Otero (Colombia), Noriya Uedo (Japan), Cecilio Cerisoli (Argentina), Raul Araya (Chile), Sergio Sobrino (Mexico), Vitor Arantes (Brazil) and Carlos Rodriguez-Reyes (Colombia) as distinguished faculty, participants from nine Latin American countries observed live procedures, participated in breakout sessions, and interacted actively.
After this proven success, WEO acknowledges the generous support from Fujifilm and expects to continue using this format for future education in high-quality endoscopy during 2021.
