Digestive Disease Week® (DDW) offers new and exciting programs and data that cross a variety of disciplines in gastroenterology and hepatology. Based on feedback from the societies, several topics have emerged that attendees might find of interest. A blog post relating to each theme will be posted on Mondays on the DDW Blog. Be sure to subscribe to receive an email when the next article is posted.

This is post four of five in the series. Read earlier posts, 1/5 about colorectal cancer, 2/5 about the gut microbiome and 3/5 about hepatitis C, also on the DDW Blog.

Besides training, education and new research, gastroenterologists rely on innovative technology in the diagnosis and management of gastrointestinal disorders. In the past year, there have been several advances including endoscopy technology and colonscopy screenings. Since new technology is available and emerging, there are several sessions and abstracts on this topic at DDW® 2014 in Chicago, IL.

DDW attendees are also encouraged to visit the Exhibit Hall, where they will find companies and organizations in the device/instrumentation sector. View a list of companies that are exhibiting at DDW 2014. You can also use the handy Exhibit Guide to navigate through the Exhibit Hall.
