Gastrointestinal Pathology

love him, he cares and it shows. he does a great job explaining, in his own words/way

Very strange pauses while speaking, felt condescending at times. Not like his other videos, he seemed not confident in the material

like it very much, nothing to say too more. His lecture is very easy to understand.

fantastic teaching with instant impact to improve self confidence and boost knowledge

Great lecture and Dr. Raj is wonderful. My only comment would be to add a bit of information about the pathogenesis tied to the different etiologies

Easy to understand :D Very helping me to study better and better

He is clear, full of substance without any need to explain but gives accurate description.

i dont know why but i dont like this lecturer in his slides here is lot of ontroversies slides says one thing and lecturer says another thing

Excellently explained everything. I was looking for alternative to Kaplan and I think this is it.

Excellent! Dr Carlo covered hepatology well. Thank you so much.

lacking crucial points about pathogenesis - egthe pathogenesis of cirrhosis (ie stellate cells), does not link key symptoms and signs with pathology, just provides a list instead.

the lession is very insteresting, but i think i could be explained a little better, showing and explaining an image of CXR of atelectasis, sentinel loop AXR. Also it coulde be better if hidroclorotiazied mecanism way of producing muscle weakness is explained after answering the question of the quizz, and the indications of the ERCP explained. Thanks

To the point. lesson for life, highyieal, we’ll categorized

Very great video, as someone probably mention earlier a bit more pathophys would be appreciated

The review was easy to understand with clear explanation. I also appreciated the test sample after the lecture. It tested my knowledge regarding the subject matter thank you

He is the best lecturer on this site.His style of teaching is very powerful.He is not too fast, he knows when to pause for a second, when to repeat a word.Thank u Sir.

Lots of materials covered in a short time. Very good review lectures

Clear as always. I like the way he emphasizes things. A lot

Comprehensive Detailed with anatomy Clinical examples Minimum words Great explanations

These lectures are very informative, detailed. I learned a lot from the lectures.

very detailed, clear, and professional. Related with clinic. I like his lectures very much.

Wow.. What a Wonderfull course! Actually, I have linked the short videos that Dr. Carlo made with other educational videos, then I read the articles for each lecture, It was really like I have covered all of the I linked the peptic perforation with celiac trunk artries Or GIT Hormones with Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome. Thank you doctor Carlo.. from my heart really..

Dr Ray is very funny and know how to give his lecture in order to make everyone understand the core concept.

Thank you very much Dr. Raj for explaining such difficult concept and make it so easy to understand.For everyone we don't have so much time to read and to cope with boring lecture.

There are many more symptoms of oropharyngeal dysphagia than those mentioned (e.g. increased chewing time, inability to form bolus etc.). Also, referral to speech pathology would provide additional insight into the patient's dysphagia.

It was very usefull but the problem it has no much pathophysiology informations

thank you prof Raj for the good explanations, you know how to keep the attention of the student

Very good lectures nice and concise with no beating around the bush

Very funny the way that he explains everything, make difficult concept very much easy to understand and with high yield information!!!

Very clear and simple presentation Many exercises after all videos I would recommend it to my colleague

the tutuor did a great job but i find this topic diffucult and did not get a clear picture of it yet

I'm a huge fan of Dr. Raj so this may be a bit biased. Dr. Raj does an excellent job of hitting the high points and his anecdotes are quite relevant. You almost feel as though you're on rounds or in the clinic and there's a patient presenting with symptoms. Video examples of the endoscopes would be awesome btw.

I like it, please make high eyelid question, I ll really appreciate it,thanks

I felt that there where some details missing, Dr. Raj did give out the basic description of the majority of diseases, but if the videos where a little more complete I wouldn't of felt the need to go read and look some where else

Good way of classifying the causes but missed out on defining the pressure (>5 mmHg) and potential treatment options such as propranolol, TIPS etc.... Also what about the potential complications, which would have been perfect to discuss here ie variceal bleeds

Missed another important benign tumour of the liver that would have been worthwhile covering

It would have been great to list the most common agents that could potentially lead to liver toxicity aside from paracetamol, incl phenytoin, statins, amiodarone, methotrexate. Also not sure if this would be discussed in the Emergency Medicine talks but actually working up the patient and what to do from a monitoring point of view once a diagnosis of paracetamol overdose would have been really helpful. It would have been worth noting that acetylcysteine most efficacious within 8 to 10 hours after ingestion of paracetamol.

It would have been good to discuss the use IV arantiprotease for the management of this condition. Moreover a little bit of discussion about the genetics of this conditions how it influences the disease presentation and natural history.

It would have been useful to go over the Rome III criteria to have an appreciation of the diagnostic criteria. Moreover, it would be extremely beneficial to cover the red flags

For example no mention of primary scelorising cholangitis, need for colonscopy after 8 yrs of active disease and subsequent colectomy if premalignant lesions identified. Also no mention of toxic megacolon. It would have been good to discuss the hierarchy of management in these patients

A superficial talk about an important contributor to malabsorption. I think it would have been good to discuss why we need to assess for the prescence of IgA to begin with. What the role of HLA is in the disease. Moreover, the importance of biopsy as well as the long term complication of celiac disease include osteoprosis, neurological impairment and enteropathy associated T-cell lymphoma.

It would would have been good to further elaborate on dx testing and in which clinical circumstances one would be more appropriate over the other. Also with the increasing incidence of resistant organisms I feel the lecture didn't adequately outline appropriate second line management. Also the error regarding PPI which was flagged by another listener

I think the lectures provide a quick summary of these sections. However, I don't think it is adequate depth particularly when it comes to management. This is exemplified by the management of oesophageal varices where it is unclear which management approach will be utilised first/preferred in the case of acute bleed nor is it clear when you will need to utilise TIPSS. Finally a number of diagnostic tests are mentioned throughout the talks but the audience is not provided with a basis to approach the patients sitting on front of them. As an example if a patient complains of dysphagia or dyspepsia what will be your first diagnostic tests and the order in which you will perform these test. I think this the higher level thinking required for step 2

No mention of ongoing follow up and grades of barrett's

So far the path lectures on my iPhone are great. I drive 30 minutes to school each way and I think they are very comprehensible even when it's this more passive learning style. They are perfect for getting my brain ready for school and winding down on the drive back.

his lecture is short & more useful good for practice study easily

GREETINGS; I gave it a five star rating,b'coz this is first time i m encountering such a review course which is very concise, yet so enlightening that u get a complete grasp of the most important topics in HEPATOLOGY .I w'd recommend these lecture courses for all 3rd year medical students in this part of world [ASIA].The best part about these lectures n personally which i liked the most [as i being a critical care post graduate student] r the ''IN USE'' criteria for liver transplantation like KING'S COLLEGE CRITERIA n criteria for prognostications, like charcotte--pugh n MELD SCORING. CARLO RAJ SIR REALLY ROCKS

Since December 2013, Several DAA drugs were approved by FDA. So you can update this lecture.
