What this trial studies

This multi-center observational study aims to document the clinical utility of Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD) in patients scheduled for the procedure as part of their standard medical care. Participants will receive standard medical treatment without any experimental interventions. Data will be collected prospectively from multiple centers, including the University of Florida, Massachusetts General Hospital, and Baylor College of Medicine. The study will involve informed consent and follow-up as medically indicated, ensuring that patient care remains the priority.
