Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is now a key tool for gastroenterologists, evolving from diagnostics to interventional therapies. Its applications in cancer staging, tumor characterization, and pain management are expanding.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Medical Imaging
  • Interventional Endoscopy

Background:

  • Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) has evolved significantly over the past two decades.
  • Initially diagnostic, EUS is increasingly utilized for therapeutic interventions.
  • Its demand and integration into clinical practice are rapidly growing among gastroenterologists.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide an overview of the current state-of-the-art in interventional EUS.
  • To highlight the expanding applications and evolving role of EUS in gastroenterology.
  • To discuss recent advancements and emerging indications for EUS.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current clinical applications and ongoing research in interventional EUS.
  • Discussion of EUS utility in cancer staging and submucosal tumor characterization.
