Core Subjects

The Core Subject Update is a continuing medical education activity that was developed to assist in the education and recertification of colon and rectal surgeons. 24 core subjects have been chosen and are presented in a rotating four-year cycle.

Presenters are experts on their selected topics and present evidence-based reviews on the current diagnosis, treatment and controversies of these diseases. Questions developed from each presentation are included in the American Board of Colon and Rectal Surgery’s recertification question bank.
