A Leader in Endoscopic Procedures
The Center for Advanced Endoscopy at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center is the largest referral practice for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in New England, and is the second largest in the nation.
BIDMC has a central role in innovative research trials investigating new endoscopic technologies, with a particular focus on earlier diagnosis and more effective treatment of a variety of gastrointestinal cancers and pre-malignant conditions. The advanced endoscopy fellowship program at BIDMC trains the next generation of national and international leaders in the field of gastrointestinal endoscopy.
