Training in EUS: Current State of Training Modalities from a Worldwide Survey

Aims Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) is an advanced procedure requiring a formal and specific training. Currently position papers by American and European societies for endoscopy (ASGE and ESGE) have been published on required training modalities, but data on the adoption of such standards lack. Our aim was to describe the current state of training in EUS around the world, investigate educational lacks and clarify expectations of trainees for their training period.
