LiveCarta for Gastroenterology
Create the most relevant training and continuing education curriculum for today’s gastroenterology practitioners with leading-edge digital solutions from LiveCarta. Assemble your learning materials with the most dynamic content from industry-leading authors and publishers.
Embracing the digital shift
Emerging from the setbacks of the COVID-19 pandemic, the gastroenterology education field is seeing a return to traditional in-person training and a resurgence in conference-based programming for all levels of learning. But one thing is for certain. The advances in digital programs and remote education that were mandated during the era of social distancing will stay with us in one form or another.
With aging populations always on the rise and waves of new digestive disease research and treatments coming to the forefront, the significance of offering the most timely and relevant education programs has never been higher. Unlike many other medical fields, the massive impact of technology in endoscopy and imaging disciplines over the last decade has engendered a comfort level with digital technology among GI practitioners and educational thought leaders.
Tailor your Learning Content with LiveCarta
LiveCarta is disrupting the educational technology sector with a solution that enables course creators and instructional designers to mix-and-match the most relevant clinical content in real time. For the Ortho community, our LiveCarta Digital CoursePack Builder software delivers unprecedented flexibility to combine any or all chapters from a leading textbook, and supplement those materials with additional texts, open-source materials, and your own time-tested content. Users can save, reorder and remix content to deliver fully tailored collections. Content from the intelligent LiveCarta Catalog is royalty- and copyright-managed automatically.
LiveCarta has partnered with SLACK Books to empower those who are entrusted to create professional learning content, whether for graduate students, residents or for continuing education programs to refresh the knowledgebase of experienced MDs.
Top Authors, Content and Experts
SLACK brings a well-regarded portfolio of titles for the modern gastroenterology professionals and aspiring MDs, including titles from its game-changing Curbside Consultation Series.
These titles offer a purposeful format for expert advice, preferences, and opinions on tough clinical questions. The unique Q&A format provides quick access to current information related to common situations with the simplicity of a conversation between two colleagues. Numerous images, diagrams, and references are included to enhance the text and to illustrate appropriate treatments.
With dozens of clinical questions available for selection, it’s now easy to include scenarios offering information basic enough for residents while also incorporating expert advice that even high-volume clinicians will appreciate. Experienced practitioners, fellows and residents in training, surgical attendings, and surgical residents will benefit from the user-friendly and casual format and the expert advice.
Filtered through LiveCarta, these leading-edge SLACK books now become the foundational starting point for your next course. You are in control. Choose the sections that support your learning mission and present them in the order that your course developers prefer – and in combination with your existing or mandated content. LiveCarta has mainstreamed Pay-by-Chapter (PBC) capabilities for the educational publishing sector.
How it works

Step 2
Enhance the content with video, audio, images, and other info, add your own chapters, or just use the content as is. Skip unnecessary chapters, or change the order to match your syllabus.
Step 3
