Dear Colleagues,
The role of endoscopy has been growing these days not only for diagnosis but also for treatment. Endoscopy has drawn notice as a safe and non-invasive form of diagnosis and treatment. However, the technique has become more complex, and a system for learning technique efficiently is required. Therefore, it is essential to receive training to acquire techniques in medical situations. Our former president “Prof. Takeshi Azuma” established the International Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Training Center in Kobe (I GET KOBE) in November 2010 to share the endoscopic diagnostic techniques and treatment we pioneered with the world and provided training for international gastroenterological endoscopists. We have held International Endoscopy Hands-on Seminars 6 times so far, and have trained more than100 endoscopists from 28 countries to operate ESD.
In this time, we'll also expect that many endoscopists is collected in Kobe from the whole world.
Sincerely yours

Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the Program Committee, we would like to invite you to the 7th Kobe International Endoscopy Hands-on Seminar in Kobe Japan. The program for the seminar focuses on endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). ESD is an advanced technique of therapeutic endoscopy for superficial gastrointestinal neoplasms, which was developed in Japan. At the previous seminar, 30 trainees from 16 countries attended this course and it received a high evaluation. The seminar will be held from June 15rd to June 17th in 2018, and provides you the chance to learn side-by-side with some of the most recognized endoscopists in the world.
We believe that you will learn the best current skills from the excellent trainers at this seminar. We look forward to welcoming you to Kobe.
Sincerely yours,
