Abstract
The introduction of device-assisted enteroscopy (DAE) in the beginning of the 21st century has revolutionized the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the small intestine. In contrast to capsule endoscopy, the other main diagnostic modality of small bowel diseases, DAE has the unique advantages of allowing the observation of the region of interest in detail and enabling tissue acquisition and therapeutic intervention. As DAE becomes an essential procedure in daily clinical practice, there is an increasing need for correct guidelines on when and how it is to be performed and what technical factors should be taken into consideration. In response to these needs, the Korean Association for the Study of Intestinal Diseases has developed an expert consensus statement on the performance of DAE by reviewing current evidence. This expert consensus statement particularly focuses on the indications, choice of insertion route, therapeutic intervention, complications, and relevant technical points.

Funding Information:To conclude this introduction, we would like to express our gratitude to all those who have contributed in various ways to the publication of this volume. The twelve contributions of this book present many of the conclusions of the research project entitled “Society, Politics, and Economics: Projections of Spanish Scholasticism on British and Anglo-Saxon Thought” (reference no. FFI2017-84435-P) funded by the Spanish Research Agency ( AEI ), part of the Spanish Government’s Ministry of Economy, and the European Regional Development Fund ( ERDF ), institutions to whom we are very grateful for the funding received. This project was carried out at the Universidad Francisco de Vitoria ( UFV ) over the course of more than three years, from 2018 to mid-2021, and was led by Professors Leopoldo Prieto ( UFV ) and José Luis Cendejas ( UFV ). In addition to its directors, forming part of the team were (in alphabetical order) Rafael Alé Ruiz ( UFV ), Alfonso Díaz Vera (Independent Authority of Fiscal Responsibility, Spanish Government), Ángel M. Fernández Álvarez (Ministry of Economy, Spanish Government), Cecilia Font de Villanueva ( UFV ), León M. Gómez Rivas (Universidad Europea de Madrid), Evaristo Palomar Maldonado (Universidad Complutense de Madrid), Pablo Sanz Bayón (Universidad Pontificia Comillas), Lorena Velasco Guerrero ( UFV ), and M. Idoya Zorroza Huarte (Universidad Pontificia de Salamanca). In addition to the authors of the chapters in this volume and the members of the research team, we would like to give special thanks to the vice-chancellors of Universidad Francisco de Vitoria, Clemente López González and Alberto López Rosado, to Félix Hap Barriuso and Raquel García Fernández at the Office for the Transfer of Research Results ( OTRI ), to Charles Jones, to Mike Schneider for helping to translate and improve the English of these chapters, and to Tim Page for the editing work and preparation of the final bibliography. And, of course, our thanks also go to the university hosting us and its chancellor, Daniel Sada Castaño, for promoting research on Francisco de Vitoria and his school.
