PREFACE
The development of modern medicine has enabled an era in which minimally invasive surgical methods are
commonly applied for treating gastrointestinal tumors. The activation of national cancer screening projects
and the universalization of endoscopic screenings has increased early detection of adenoma, gastric
cancers, and asymptomatic colon polyp, which also resulted in a quantitative increase in endoscopic
resection.
Additionally, due to the dedication and efforts of the Korean Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (KSGE)
and many members through research presentations, education through the seminars of societies, and care at
their respective hospitals, endoscopic submucosal dissection achieved an upward standardization of the
qualitative level of the entire country.
More than 20 years after endoscopic therapies were introduced in Korea, the KSGE has conducted seminars and
training sessions, live demonstrations, and hands-on courses annually to improve the standardization and
quality of endoscopic procedures.
The “Atlas for Endoscopic and surgical anatomy of the gastrointestinal tract,” published by the Research
Group for Multidisciplinary Therapeutic Endoscopy, is needed by endoscopists to help understand
gastrointestinal and external structures. During therapeutic endoscopy, it is necessary to understand the
external structure of the gastrointestinal tract to facilitate the procedure, while only the tract is
observed.
The textbook wanted to help understand and compare the structures surrounding the gastrointestinal tract,
including the oral cavity, esophagus, mediastinum, stomach, and small intestine, through photographs and
illustrations. Therefore, it is useful for majors in endoscopy or interested gastroenterologists.
Finally, I would like to thank the authors for their work in publishing the booklet, the Research Group for
Multidisciplinary Therapeutic Endoscopy for editing, the executive branch of the KSGE for their full
support, and the publishers of the book.
