Barrett’s Esophagus is associated with long-term gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) and is a risk factor for esophageal cancer. Current practice is to screen select patients who have multiple risk factors for esophageal cancer and monitor those patients diagnosed with Barrett’s Esophagus for development of precancerous change (dysplasia).

The Multidisciplinary Approaches to Early Barrett’s Cancer virtual presentation was held on November 18, 2020. Moderated by Sheila Krishnadath, Amsterdam University Medical Center (The Netherlands) and Prateek Sharma, University of Kansas (USA) the 90 minute presentation is available in four segments below.
