Abstract:
At each of the 89th to the 92nd congresses of the Japan Gastroenterological Endoscopy Society, a series of featured discussion sessions concerning advanced diagnostic endoscopy in the lower gastrointestinal tract were presented.

This review article summarizes these core sessions and the efficacy of the techniques discussed.
