Welcome to my curated selection of video resources for the ESGE Academy. 

These top picks are designed to complement ESGE's guidelines and curricula, providing endoscopists with a dynamic learning experience. By engaging with the videos alongside the guidelines and curricula, endoscopists can reinforce their understanding and application of key concepts. For instance, I highly recommend the video sets on advanced colonic EMR; viewing these before and after studying the ESGE guidelines and curricula will enhance your mastery of the subject. This approach not only deepens your knowledge but also allows you to learn directly from leading experts in the field.

Video Journal | Edition 02 | Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding | Nonvariceal Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding - How to deal with it


This educational video offers a clear, systematic approach to managing nonvariceal upper GI bleeding, particularly in peptic ulcer disease. Tailored for practicing endoscopists, it delivers a definitive clinical framework for acute bleeding scenarios. Central to this approach is the Forrest classification, which serves not merely as a risk stratification tool but as a strategic guide for therapeutic decision-making. Through methodical analysis of each bleeding stigmata, this video provides clinicians with precise, actionable recommendations on intervention timing and technique selection.

Video Journal | Edition 03 | ECRP | Ampullary lesion assessment during ERCP


This video series demonstrates key techniques for assessing ampullary lesions during ERCP, with a focus on distinguishing overt cancers from covert cancers. Through real case examples and endoscopic footage, the series highlights visual cues, biopsy strategies, and decision-making to improve diagnostic accuracy and guide appropriate management.

Video Journal | Edition 03 | Upper GI | Assessment of Barrett's oesophagus-related lesions


This video provides a practical guide on how to assess Barrett’s esophagus–related lesions, presenting key tips and tools for detection and characterization. It includes examples with high-definition endoscopy and advanced imaging to illustrate how to describe lesion morphology and risk features. Finally, it emphasizes the importance of structured training to ensure accurate assessment and improved clinical outcomes.
