The structure of these congresses is special and different. It centres on a series of key questions ensuring that every aspect of current knowledge and wisdom is explored with depth and throughness. The event gathered the world's best in all disciplines, with focused attention on the oesophagus and its diseases.;The strength of the book is its emphasis on the frontiers of knowledge; that is, the areas where there is still more to be known than that which is currently understood. The consensus methodology that appears herein serves to focus our clinical activities, and is valuable for the further design of research studies in this important area.
