In 2023, a visit to Senegal resulted in establishment of our first francophone centre and highlighted the need for training in this region. Regional endoscopy training in Africa has been provided by groups from Egypt and South Africa, providing a model for continent-based training that are both socially and environmentally sustainable. With the aim of investigating both the need for training and the capabilities for provision of training in North Africa, we evaluated current state of endoscopy in the Maghreb: Morocco, Algeria, Tunis.</p><p>Morocco is a Mediterranean kingdom in north-west Africa, that gained its independence from the French in 1956. While the political capital is Rabat, the economic capital is the coastal city of Casablanca. The most populated city of Morocco, Casablanca is home to 3.2 million people.</p><p>There are several hundred endoscopists in Morocco, who offer standard diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy, with ERCP available in most public hospitals and EUS in some. To increase health and sciences education and healthcare services in the country, Mohammed VI Foundation for sciences and health was created by the king. It is a non-profit semi-public foundation managing universities in Casablanca, Rabat and Dakhla and multiple healthcare facilities. The Foundation has a strong orientation toward collaboration with African countries.</p><p>Bordering Morocco to the east, Algeria is a modern country with an increasingly relaxed border policy that reflects its growing peaceful development. It took a little work to get an entry visa and a couple of hours in immigration to enter the country, but it was worth it. The initial connection came from Dr. Mohammed Omar, Chair of the WEO Middle East Committee who knew Dr. Imad Bougedouma. Just to prove that the world is a tiny place, I discovered over coffee that Imad had spent a week in Oslo for training and is known to Prof Aabakken, President of WEO, who has an Algerian sand painting in his office as proof.</p><p>An ex-colony of France, Algeria won its independence after a long and bloody war in 1962, but plunged into a decade-long destructive civil war until 2002. The last twenty-three years of peace has resulted in increasing social development including universal health care, universal education and a rapidly developing middle class.</p><p>GI training in Algeria is confined to the public hospital system alone and starts immediately after internship, continuing for four years with the final year focussed on endoscopy. There are three training public hospitals in Algiers, and only a few key hospitals around the country additionally. With the largest land mass of any country in Africa, Algeria has a significant shortage of proceduralists compounded by distance. For new skills acquisition, a shortage of trainers and centres is apparent.

Current approaches rely on a combination of clinical indices, imaging, endoscopy, histology, and biomarkers—many of which are subjective and variably interpreted. This subjectivity results in difficulties with establishing standards of care, and often is the root cause of complications. Also, there is an increasing focus on achieving healing in IBD across all aspects of the disease including clinical, radiologic, endoscopic and histologic (STRIDE-II). To achieve this, we must establish standardization across these targets. These challenges present a fertile ground for AI applications aimed at improving accuracy, efficiency, and personalization in IBD management.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Endoscopic assessment remains central to IBD diagnosis and monitoring. However, the qualitative nature of inflammation scoring and interobserver variability in all scoring systems such as the Mayo Endoscopic Score or SES-CD has long plagued clinical and research settings. This has been the impetus to develop automated scoring systems that aim to standardize these scores. The first iteration of these models used still images to train convoluted neural networks (CNNs) and then reported on their successful scoring of test data still images. These systems utilized expert scoring as the gold standard, and they were found to have excellent performance in distinguishing Mayo 0-1 from Mayo 2-3 scores, similar to human experts. The next step was that CNNs were trained to read video segments, obtained from pharmaceutical randomized trials that had captured video segments, scored by central readers. Because the earlier systems were compared to human gold standard, which has low interoperator agreement, the next step in this evolution was to consider disease outcome as a measure of validity. Again, clinical trial videos were used and the CNNs were trained to report a cumulative disease score that was correlated with outcomes with more meaningful results. The goal is to be able to predict responders from non-responders. AI can detect subtle visual features on endoscopy, which can be harnessed to make histologic inference without the need for biopsy. Such predictive CNNs have been developed using white light images as well as enhanced imaging techniques including endocytoscopy, narrow band imaging (vascular patterns) and I-scan. These can predict relapse rates based on real-time endoscope imaging with great accuracy. In capsule enteroscopy, AI has been developed to accurately identify and quantify small bowel ulcerations, and significantly reduce capsule reading time, for both trainees and experts.

We report a case of successful en bloc UEMR using a multiloop traction device (MLTD) (Boston Scientific, Tokyo, Japan).</p><p>A 72-year-old man with hypopharyngeal cancer underwent fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography, which revealed FDG accumulation in the rectosigmoid colon. Colonoscopy revealed a 20-mm protruding lesion. UEMR using SnareMasterPlus (15 mm; Olympus Medical Systems, Tokyo, Japan) was attempted. However, visualization of the oral side of the lesion was challenging, as the lesion extended across the flexure of the rectosigmoid junction (Figures 1a and 2a). Retroflex observation allowed the visualization of the oral side of the tumor; however, poor maneuverability prevented suitable snaring. Therefore, we attached MLTD to the normal mucosa 5 mm oral to the lesion using a SureClip (Micro-Tech, Nanjing, China) (Figure 1b), and subsequently hooked and anchored it to the colonic wall at the opposite side of the lesion with the second clip (Figure 1c). The traction force reduced the steep angle of the rectosigmoid junction and improved the visualization of the oral margin of the lesion in forward view (Figures 1d and 2b). We performed reliable snaring by directly observing the lesion margins (Figure 1e). The traction force optimized the visualization of the resected wound, which facilitated subsequent clipping (Figure 1f).

However, to date, the etiology of PSC remains unknown.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A diagnosis of PSC is made based on the following major findings: typical bile duct images and elevated serum alkaline phosphatase level; minor findings include the presence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) as well as histopathological findings of the liver [&lt;span&gt;1, 2&lt;/span&gt;]. Regarding the treatment, liver transplantation is the only curative treatment, and ursodeoxycholic acid and bezafibrate are used as symptomatic treatments.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It means that endoscopy is not essential for the diagnosis and treatment of PSC; however, there are situations where endoscopic findings or treatment can contribute.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;However, because endoscopic intervention for patients with PSC involves a high risk, appropriate patient selection is extremely important, so it is necessary to have a deep knowledge of the findings on the contribution of endoscopes to PSC to date.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the latest issue of &lt;i&gt;Digestive Endoscopy&lt;/i&gt;, Mizuno et al. presented an in-depth and interesting review, titled “Endoscopic management of primary sclerosing cholangitis” [&lt;span&gt;3&lt;/span&gt;].&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In this article, we discuss the contribution of endoscopic examinations in patients with PSC in light of this review.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Typical bile duct images are a key factor in the diagnosis of PSC. For a long time, bile duct imaging has been carried out using endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC); however, it is impossible to inject contrast medium into all of the bile ducts, so it is impossible to evaluate the degree of all bile ducts. In addition, in cases where many bile duct strictures exist or the strictures are severe, there remains a risk of the contrast medium not being excreted, leading to postprocedural cholangitis or pancreatitis. Further, the management of cholangitis that occurs in conjunction with PSC can be extremely challenging. In addition, the corresponding radiation exposure not only affects endoscopists but also medical staff; thus, performing ERC without actual necessity is unacceptable [&lt;span&gt;4, 5&lt;/span&gt;].&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) has been reported to have both high diagnostic sensitivity and specificity and is recommended as the first-line diagnostic method for PSC [&lt;span&gt;1-3&lt;/span&gt;]; thus, it is difficult to justify performing ERC for the sole purpose of cholangiography.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The greatest contribution of ERC to the diagnosis of PSC is that it can be used to obtain tissue samples for differentiation of PSC from bile duct cancer. The findings of bile duct stenosis in PSC are sometimes very similar to those in bile duct cancer.

The last decade has seen its most rapid advancement, and AI is now an essential part of everyday life. The introduction of computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) to the realm of endoscopy brings a paradigm shift to medical diagnostics. Two of the most important applications of AI in endoscopy are computer-aided detection (CADe) and computer-aided diagnosis (CADx) [&lt;span&gt;2&lt;/span&gt;]. Both these applications are developed by training AI models to detect vascular and mucosal patterns on mucosal lesions. However, in conditions such as achalasia, where specific lesions are not seen, this model of detection will not work. Therein lies a good reason for the study developed by Shiwaku and colleagues, which marks a different phase of CAD [&lt;span&gt;3&lt;/span&gt;].&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The study under discussion presents compelling evidence of CAD's potential to enhance the sensitivity and specificity of achalasia diagnosis, particularly among non-expert endoscopists. These findings highlight a transformative step in the democratization of medical expertise, where technology bridges the gap between novice and experienced clinicians. However, as with any innovation, the translation of these results into real-world clinical practice warrants careful scrutiny.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One of the most striking outcomes of this study is the dramatic improvement in sensitivity among inexperienced endoscopists, rising from 66.9% to 91.9% with CAD assistance. Even experienced practitioners benefited from CAD, with their sensitivity increasing from 79.5% to 90.8%. These findings suggest that CAD has the potential to mitigate diagnostic variability and significantly reduce the rate of missed achalasia cases. Given the availability of highly effective treatments, such as peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM), improving early and accurate diagnosis is undoubtedly beneficial for optimizing patient outcomes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yet, despite these promising results, significant questions remain regarding CAD's application in real-world clinical settings. The study's limitations underscore certain critical challenges. Achalasia is a rare disease, and the artificially high prevalence of cases in this study (50% of the sample) does not reflect the reality of routine endoscopic practice. In an actual clinical setting, where achalasia cases are far less frequent, the performance of CAD may differ. The concern here is whether CAD will maintain its diagnostic power when faced with the complexities and unpredictability of daily endoscopic practice, where the pre-test probability of achalasia is much lower.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Another point of concern is the reliance on pre-selected video data, captured by a single expert. While this controlled setting ensures consistency in the dataset, it does not account for the real-life variability in endoscopic image quality, patient presentation, and operator technique.
