Forward Academy™ C2 CryoBalloon™ Ablation (CBA)
C2 CryoBalloon™ Ablation (CBA) has emerged as an important tool for the treatment of Barrett’s esophagus, a pre-cancerous condition of the esophagus. It is a safe, effective, and minimally invasive procedure that has been shown to effectively eradicate esophageal dysplasia and metaplasia, ultimately reducing the risk of developing esophageal cancer1.
However, like many endoscopic techniques, it requires appropriate training to achieve the best possible results. For this purpose, we are pleased to launch the Forward Academy training on C2 CryoBalloon™ Ablation.
This course will provide a valuable opportunity for you to enhance your knowledge and expertise in this field.
We look forward to seeing you in Hamburg!
Course objectives
- The aim is to provide theoretical knowledge and practical training on the use of C2 CryoBalloon™ Ablation in the treatment of Barrett’s esophagus. The course will cover topics such as patient selection, technical aspects of the procedure, and post-procedural management.
