Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR) is a minimally invasive procedure used to remove cancerous or precancerous tissues from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The technique is performed using an endoscope, a flexible tube equipped with a camera and specialized instruments. EMR is primarily employed for superficial lesions that are confined to the mucosal layer of the GI tract, making it an important tool in the management of early-stage cancers.
