Dear colleagues & friends,
Amsterdam Live Endoscopy is one of the leading live-endoscopy meetings in Europe and maybe in the world, with around 500 participants each year. The focus of this meeting is on demonstration of high quality established endoscopic techniques and at the same time a view into the future treatment of our patients with gastrointestinal diseases. We strictly follow the guidelines of the European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy in order to have maximal educational benefit but also to protect our patients’ best interest. All this is situated in the excellent atmosphere of the Okura Hotel & Conference Centre, which has been the home of Amsterdam Live Endoscopy since 2007. Again we will try to cover the spectrum of esophago-gastric, hepato-pancreato-biliary and small/large bowel endoscopy with a focus on standard as well as advanced interventional procedures. Our 2015 guest faculty will consist of: Todd Baron (Chapel Hill, USA),Raf Bisschops (Leuven, Belgium), Pierre Deprez (Leuven, Belgium), Robert Hawes (Orlando, USA), Maarten Jacobs (Amsterdam, the Netherlands), Ralf Kiesslich (Wiesbaden, Germany), Brian Saunders (London, United Kingdom) and Stefan Seewald (Zürich, Switzerland)
The entire local faculty, fellows and nursing staff look forward to welcoming you all again in Amsterdam in December 2015. We will do our utmost to make your visit an educational one and also make sure you will take home some new knowledge, tips and tricks. We hope to see you in the Okura hotel on December 14 & 15, 2015. Paul Fockens, chairman
