Background: El Salvador Atlas of Gastrointestinal Video Endoscopy is an internet based digital video atlas for educational
purposes that has been on the web for 18 years with more than 4700 video clips and images. Endoscopy is a visually oriented
discipline. Video clips, by virtue of their dynamic nature, provide greater visual detail of gastrointestinal anatomy and pathology
than photographic images.
Methods: Endoscopic procedure, endoscopy, enteroscopy, colonoscopy ERCP were digitally captured in real time, edited and
correlated with corresponding pathology, radiology and surgery for each completed clip, the final completed clip were rendered
in MPEG-1 format and subsequently converted to Real Media for on-demand viewing as streaming video via internet. The user
interface is server generated dynamic HTLM pages, with relational database system backend.
Conclusion: El Salvador Atlas of Gastrointestinal Video Endoscopy represent internet base, fully digital, educational video
atlas of gastroenterology which integrates multiple endoscopic images modalities with relevant surgical, pathological and
radiologic data. The substitution of video clips for still images will provide greater educational benefit. El Salvador Atlas of
Gastrointestinal Video Endoscopy may represent an educational milestone for the dissemination of knowledge to the practicing
physician, trainee and medical students.
