Gastroenterologists must use endoscopy responsibly, obtain informed consent, follow sedation and reprocessing standards and recognise complications promptly. Advanced procedures require appropriate training and institutional privileges.
Clinical care should integrate nutrition, pathology, surgery, radiology and oncology when appropriate rather than relying on procedures alone.
