ASGE DDW Videos from Around the World | 2023-EUS EVALUATION OF GALLBLADDER LESIONS

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses the use of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) in the evaluation of gallbladder and bile duct lesions. EUS provides high-resolution images and can detect lesions that may be missed on transabdominal ultrasound. It can be used to diagnose and stage gallbladder cancers, as well as evaluate conditions like gallbladder sludge and polyps. The video showcases various cases where EUS was used to identify different gallbladder and bile duct lesions, such as sludge balls, layering sludge, gallstones, gallbladder calcification, and bile duct sludge. The importance of proper endosonographic techniques for effective imaging is also highlighted. Overall, EUS is deemed an important tool in the evaluation of gallbladder diseases.<br />Note: No explicit credits were mentioned in the transcript.
