Endoscopic Ultrasound

About this book

A multi-author volume in the Clinical Gastroenterology series that takes endoscopic ultrasound from first principles to new techniques. Part I covers instrumentation, probe, radial and linear EUS, the cytopathology of EUS-guided fine needle aspiration and common pitfalls. Part II works by site: oesophageal, gastric, pancreatic and rectal cancer, the mediastinum, subepithelial and ampullary lesions, pancreatic cysts and the biliary tree. Parts III and IV deal with EUS-guided cholangiopancreatography, drainage of pancreatic fluid collections, coeliac plexus block, fine needle injection therapy, contrast-enhanced EUS and endosurgical uses.
