VIDEO: Gastroenterologists seek to shape future, not react to it

PHILADELPHIA – For those who seek to shape rather than react to the future of gastroenterology, attendance at the American Gastroenterological Association annual Tech Summit is essential.

While personalized medicine is poised to revolutionize medicine across the specialties, “We have some surprises upcoming in how we can really leverage and apply [personalized medicine] in gastroenterology,” says Dr. Michael L. Kochman, AGAF, chair of the AGA Center for GI Innovation and Technology.

Among new devices that will be featured at this year’s Tech Summit will be some from the bariatric and antireflux spaces, according to Dr. Kochman.

“Our ability to influence the future, rather than react to it is critical,” he says.
