This article reviews advanced imaging and endoscopic techniques for diagnosing and treating liver and biliary tract diseases. It highlights key radiologic modalities and endoscopic procedures for effective patient management.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology and Hepatology
  • Diagnostic Imaging
  • Interventional Endoscopy

Background:

  • Liver and biliary tract diseases require accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.
  • Radiologic and endoscopic interventions are crucial for managing these conditions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide an overview of current radiologic and endoscopic techniques for liver and biliary diseases.
  • To emphasize the role of various imaging modalities and endoscopic procedures.

Main Methods:

  • Review of diagnostic imaging techniques including ultrasonography, computed tomography, nuclear scintigraphy, and magnetic resonance imaging.
  • Discussion of endoscopic procedures such as endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, sphincterotomy, biliary endoprostheses, cholangioscopy, endoscopic ultrasound, and laser lithotripsy.
