Video Transcription

Video Summary

In the video transcript, Dr. Sumit Tiwani and Janelle DeFilippis discuss a case study of a 32-year-old woman with postprandial epigastric pain, nausea, and vomiting. They explore the use of different imaging modalities such as ultrasound, CT scans, and MRCP to detect common bile duct stones. The sensitivity and specificity of each modality are compared, with MRCP being highlighted as having high sensitivity for detecting stones. Endoscopic ultrasound is also discussed as an alternative for patients at intermediate risk who cannot undergo MRCP. The transcript emphasizes the importance of considering the patient's risk factors to determine the appropriate diagnostic and management approach, including the potential use of ERCP for patients at high risk. The video provides a detailed overview of various imaging techniques and their relevance in diagnosing common bile duct stones.
