WATS3D Case 1 (5:55) - Dr Michael Smith

"On finding LGD, HGD & Dysplasia"

"Peace of mind is worth a lot"

"On finding Barrett's"

"(WATS3D) Probably the most significant advance that we've seen as pathologists in the last 25 years"

"No real time issues with WATS3D"

"(With WATS3D) We do have significantly higher detection of Barrett's esophagus"

"WATS gives me a much sharper tool to use to find the disease early and prevent the natural progression"

WATS3D for post-ablation

"This has increased our yield in detecting precancerous changes Barrett's and dysplasia"

"With WATS I can find dysplasia, which further supports the feeling I had that the patient needed to be treated"
