Abstract
I read with interest the special article published in your journal back in 2019, dealing with basic training in gastrointestinal endoscopy for resident physicians specializing in gastroenterology, which has prompted me to offer the following comments: The sections encompassing the theoretical skills that residents must acquire, both regarding upper and lower endoscopy, include report writing and image recording. The structure and contents of a report for an endoscopic procedure faithfully reflect the endoscopist's technical expertise level. An endoscopy report represents the best quality control measure for any endoscopist. It includes text and recorded images. The structure and content of the text have been properly established by clinical practice guidelines. With regard to endoscopic images, these are not always recorded. Different scientific societies and guidelines suggest very different approaches, usually involving image-rich contents, which is usually overlooked because of both space and time constraints.
