Podcast transcript: https://www.canjsurg.ca/content/e145-masterclass-rob-bechara-optical-evaluation-colonic-polyps

On this episode we were joined by the master of optical evaluation of polyps, Dr. Rob Bechara. Dr. Bechara is an advanced therapeutic endoscopist at Queen’s University, and he gave us a masterclass on how to look at polyps and assess what kind of polyp it is. This is an essential primer on important macroscopic and microscopic polyp characteristics and really a must-listen for anyone who does endoscopy, surgeon or gastroenterologist.

Also don’t miss his really unique experience training in Japan and what we might learn about our own training models in the process.
