EUS (ENDOSCOPIC ULTRASOUND)
Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) is a medical procedure that uses an endoscope equipped with an ultrasound probe to obtain detailed images of the digestive tract and surrounding organs.Â
EUS is endoscopic ultrasonography. An ultrasound probe is incorporated into a standard upper GI endoscope. The usual upper GI endoscope helps the doctor to see only within the cavity of the esophagus, stomach, and 1st part of the small intestine(duodenum); incorporating an ultrasound probe helps the doctor to see organs around the parts mentioned above of the patient’s gut like heart, mediastinum, liver, pancreas and bile and pancreatic ducts.
