Stomach and Duodenal Diseases
Fabian Emura (Colombia)

Endoscopy is essential to manage stomach and duodenal diseases, such as peptic ulcers, stomach cancers, and duodenal tumors. Accordingly, the Stomach and Duodenal Diseases Committee, formerly Upper GI Cancer Committee, would like to clarify the role of endoscopy for these diseases in each region/country in the world with the views of different incidences and socioeconomic backgrounds. Our goal is to develop consensus/statements for endoscopic diagnoses and treatments in stomach and duodenal diseases with global vision and these will be achieved by world experts in this field serving as members of this committee.
