Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology and Endoscopy

Background:

  • Current endoscopic word database systems lack standardization.
  • This inconsistency hinders data sharing and analysis in gastrointestinal endoscopy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the need for standardized terminology in gastrointestinal endoscopy.
  • To introduce a developed endoscopic word reference by the World Organization for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing endoscopic terminology systems.
  • Development of a standardized endoscopic word reference.

Main Results:

  • An endoscopic word reference has been established.
  • This reference provides a foundation for standardized terminology.

Conclusions:

  • A standardized software program for gastrointestinal endoscopy should be developed.
  • This program should be based on the new reference system or a similar standardized approach.
