Abstract:
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: In this review, we aim to summarize the existing literature and future directions on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) for the diagnosis and treatment of PB (pancreaticobiliary) disorders. RECENT FINDINGS: AI models have been developed to aid in the diagnosis and management of PB disorders such as pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC), pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs), acute pancreatitis, chronic pancreatitis, autoimmune pancreatitis, choledocholithiasis, indeterminate biliary strictures, cholangiocarcinoma and endoscopic procedures such as ERCP, EUS, and cholangioscopy. Recent studies have integrated radiological, endoscopic and pathological data to develop models to aid in better detection and prognostication of these disorders. AI is an indispensable proponent in the future practice of medicine. It has been extensively studied and approved for use in the detection of colonic polyps. AI models based on clinical, laboratory, and radiomics have been developed to aid in the diagnosis and management of various PB disorders and its application is ever expanding. Despite promising results, these AI-based models need further external validation to be clinically applicable.

Chronic Pancreatitis I: Introduction
Pancreatitis is the inflammation of the pancreas, which occurs when the immune system becomes active and causes swelling, pain, and disruptions in organ function. Pancreatitis can manifest as either an acute or chronic condition.
Acute pancreatitis arises suddenly and lasts for a brief duration, while chronic pancreatitis is a long-term affliction...
