Dear colleagues,
This year, the gastroenterology sessions will focus on gastrointestinal diseases.

We will speak about acute and chronic inflammatory conditions, pathogenesis and diagnostic challenges, cyclicality, how acute pathologies turn into chronic with improper treatment.

A lot of time will be given to review of the large intestine: Сhronic colitis and neoplasms. How to differentiate between a chronic microbial process and food allergy or steroid-dependent enteropathy. How not to harm the patient.

The key theme of this year will be gastrointestinal dysmotility.

Gastric atony, functional intestinal obstruction, etc. How to initiate peristalsis and identify the underlying cause timely?

Kathrin Busch, Diplomate ECVIM-CA Internal Medicine, will cover these and many other topics in her speeches.
