Quick Tips on Colonoscopy Techniques【電子版】

So it would seem that many young doctors outside Japan are just as interested in being able to quickly master colonoscopy insertion techniques as those in Japan. Yet, oddly enough, few texts on the subject of Japanese colonoscopy insertion techniques have been published in English, which begs the question: how exactly do young doctors overseas learn colonoscopy insertion techniques? Considering this problem, we thought it would be a good idea to put out an English edition of this book. First of all, it makes clear that there are multiple opinions on how best to achieve a given goal and different methods for doing so. This gives the reader the opportunity to learn and develop techniques that suit their own style and preferences. Secondly, because this book starts out with basic explanations, it contains a lot of material that will be enormously helpful to colonoscopists who are just beginning their training, as well as those who have already gained a moderate level of experience.
