Pediatric Endoscopy
Catharine M. Walsh, Editor
In 2022, the North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition celebrated its 50th anniversary. Just as the field of pediatric gastroenterology has expanded over the last five decades, pediatric endoscopy has grown exponentially since its beginnings as fiberoptic endoscopy in the early 1970s. Thanks to reductions in instrument diameters, technological improvements, and progress in sedation and anesthetics, endoscopy in infants, children, and adolescents has become easier and safer.
