, ‘Leading executives from the Asian, American, and European endoscopy societies, who are leading the field of gastrointestinal endoscopy worldwide, will participate as keynote speakers at this conference.’,
,
, ‘Korea is a top-tier country in the field of therapeutic endoscopy for early gastric cancer. By using gastric endoscopy to confirm suspected lesions in the mucosa of the upper gastrointestinal tract and simultaneously removing them using a special endoscopic knife, the treatment of early gastric cancer using endoscopy is as effective as open surgery with a significantly lower complication rate.’,
,
, ‘ENDO 2024, conducted as an integrated academic conference, was organized by a committee led by Jun Hoon-Jae (Professor of Gastroenterology at Korea University Anam Hospital) as the congress president, with the participation of domestic academic leaders (Moon Jong-ho), IDEN academic director (Lee Hang-rak), and the academic director of KSGE (Cho Gwang-beom), in collaboration with WEO.’,

,
, ‘Moreover, sessions on various topics with participation from companies such as FujiFilm, Olympus, and Pentax will allow practical training, and a session scheduled for the 6th, titled “Exploring gender-related issues in gastroenterology,” aims to create a platform for lively discussions on academic and clinical areas of interest to female doctors. Participation from various countries in Africa, the Americas, and Asia is also expected to foster active networking.’,
