Single-operator Versus Two-operator Technique in Single-balloon Enteroscopy
Sponsor: Shuhui Liang
Summary

Additionally, it can optimize staffing in the endoscopy suite. However, there are no studies comparing the effects of single-operator and two-operator techniques on single-balloon enteroscopy.
