Romania is taking a major leap forward in digestive endoscopy through two impactful workshops held in Bucharest and Cluj, focused on innovation, training, and international collaboration.

Live Endoscopy Workshop, Bucharest

This event marked the official launch of the ELUXEOTM 8000 platform, Fujifilm’s next-generation, AI-enhanced imaging system. Through live demonstrations and expert-led discussions, clinicians experienced its advanced diagnostic capabilities in action. The procedures featured the ultraslim (7.9 mm) EG-840TP endoscope, equipped with a 3.2 mm therapeutic channel, used in combination with the latest ELUXEOTM 8000 processor, offering enhanced visualization through dedicated submucosal-space Amber-Red Colour Imaging (ACI) technology.

We were proud to host Prof. Yoshimasa Miura (Japan), who joined the SOFMEDICA Symposium, presenting advanced techniques in upper GI endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD).
