Endoscopic ultrasonography is a valuable new tool for diagnosing chronic pancreatitis, offering significant potential alongside existing methods. This review explores its capabilities and limitations in clinical practice.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Chronic pancreatitis diagnosis relies on multiple tests.
  • Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) has emerged as a significant diagnostic modality in recent decades.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the role and effectiveness of EUS in diagnosing chronic pancreatitis.
  • To discuss the potential benefits and limitations of EUS for chronic pancreatitis evaluation.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of studies on endoscopic ultrasonography for chronic pancreatitis.
  • Analysis of diagnostic accuracy and clinical utility of EUS.

Main Results:

  • EUS demonstrates high sensitivity and specificity in detecting morphologic changes of chronic pancreatitis.
