Prospective Collection of Endoscopic and Histopathologic Data from Endoscopic Procedures Performed in UZ Gent

This is an observational study in which images (photos and/or videos of lesions found during endoscopy) will be collected and the associated data about these lesions (size, location in the body, outcome of histology, if resected and examined). The images will be taken while performing a diagnostic or therapeutic endoscopy. This footage can be recorded in different light modalities, and various lesions can be removed during one procedure. It is of importance that the images are recorded in the best possible image quality. The images can be either endoscopic images or endoscopic images combined with room view (this means that the endoscopic room can be filmed, for example, to visualize the endoscopist and thus show techniques of the procedure, without the patient being identified). The GDPR regulations will be respected at all times during the video recordings. The purpose of this registry is to create a database with images in the form of photos and video clips, histopathological data, demographic data of patients and data about the endoscopic procedure. The recording of this data is standard with every endoscopic procedure that patients undergo at UZ Gent. The data will be used for the following purposes: linking procedural outcomes with procedural data and patient data to improve endoscopic technique and to guarantee quality in our endoscopic unit. In this way the investigators will also be able to identify trends and link adverse events back to the patient data with the…
