Resumo

Letterkenny University Hospital, serving as the primary endoscopy center in Donegal, Republic of Ireland, plays a crucial role in diagnosing gastrointestinal disorders. This audit is conducted to determine the extent to which the endoscopy service at Letterkenny University Hospital adheres to the European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) guideline's recommendations on photodocumentation. Compliance with these guidelines ensures standardized protocols, increased diagnostic yield, support in medicolegal cases, improved communication among healthcare practitioners, and the reduction of unnecessary images.
