Endoscopic Ultrasonography

Endoscopic Ultrasonography

Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is a minimally invasive medical imaging technique used to examine the digestive tract and surrounding structures. It combines endoscopy – the use of a flexible, lighted tube inserted into the body through the mouth or anus – with ultrasound imaging, allowing for detailed visualization of the digestive tract, including organs like the pancreas, gallbladder, and liver. EUS is used to diagnose and stage many diseases of the digestive system, including cancers and inflammatory conditions. It can also be used to guide therapeutic procedures such as biopsies, ablation, and stent placement. The procedure is generally well tolerated and carries a low risk of complications. The patient is sedated while the endoscope is inserted into the body. The endoscope is then used to direct a high-frequency sound wave into the targeted area. The sound waves produce images of the digestive tract and surrounding structures, which the doctor can view on a monitor. EUS is a safe and effective technique for diagnosing and staging many digestive conditions. It is more accurate than other imaging techniques, and can provide detailed images of the digestive tract and surrounding structures. It is an essential tool for the diagnosis and management of many gastrointestinal diseases.
