Present Title & Affiliation
Primary Appointment
John Stroehlein Distinguished Professor of Gastroenterology, Department of Gastroenterology, Hepat,& Nutr, Division of Internal Medicine, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX
Research Interests
An author of over 100 peer-reviewed publications, Dr. Raju is internationally recognized for his pioneering work on endoscopic closure of colon perforations and contributions to colonoscopy, adenoma detection, and endoscopic mucosal resection of large and complex colon polyps. His current clinical research efforts focus on improving the quality of colonoscopy screening and endoscopic resection and translational research efforts focus on collaboration with basic scientists to improve the understanding of genome and microbiome interaction in colorectal neoplasia.
Dr. Raju is a pioneer in video journalism and serves as the inaugural co-editor-in-chief of VideoGIE, an official journal for the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy.
Dr. Raju is a member of several professional organizations and has served on many national society committees.
Dr.Raju's team is interested in colon cancer prevention and endoscopic resection of colon polyps as an alternative to surgery.
Endoscopic closure of colon perforations: This investigative work in the animal laboratory at the University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, formed the basis for clinical care of patients with large polyps who are at high risk for perforation. Endoscopic mucosal resection of colon polyps as an alternative to surgery: Our team is able to avoid surgery in 75% of patients with large and flat lesions that could not removed in a community practice. Invited to give the BJ Vakil Oration at the 1st World Conference on GI Endoscopy on February 18, 2017 by the President of World Endoscopy Organization, Nagi Reddy. Quality improvement in colonoscopy: Developed the Natural Language Processing Program as an alternative to manual method to measure quality of colonoscopy (recipient of the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center DOIM First Annual Quality Improvement Distinguished Paper Award) Past Research Profile: Publications for lookup. Future Research: Dr. Raju started two studies to understand the biology of subtle and flat precancerous lesions that are difficult to recognize and resect in collaboration with basic scientists and epidemiologists. A. Prospective Cohort Study of Endoscopic Resection of Large & Flat Lesions B. Serrated Lesions of the Colon
Clinical Interests
Dr. Raju’s clinical practice involves colon cancer screening and endoscopic resection of complex colon polyps as an alternative to surgery. As a clinician educator, he focuses on improving the quality of colonoscopy not only in his practice, but also aids in the education of his peers using a dedicate YouTube channel.
Endoscopic Mucosal Resection: Dr. Raju has resected over 400 large flat lesions between 2009 and 2014, with over 200 lesions referred from outside that would have required surgery. The bleeding rate is less than 5%, perforation rate less than 1%; and none required surgery for management of bleeding or perforation. The residual adenoma at 6 months was less than 3% (you could check his EMR experience and look up his outcomes ).
Colon cancer screening: Dr.Raju offers colon cancer screening, with a high adenoma detection rate (>50% in men; > 35% in women; you could look up the adenoma detection rates.)
Dr. Raju's YouTube colonoscopy education channel shares colonoscopy techniques to prevent COLON CANCER PREVENTION through better detection and resection with over 700 videos and 1,000,000 views.
