Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
An endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) was developed as a diagnostic modality but is rapidly gaining a role in a variety of therapeutic applications. EUS has been used increasingly for the drainage of pancreatic fluid collections, treatment of cystic lesions of the pancreas, EUS-guided cholangiopancreatography, localized therapy for pancreatic tumors and the treatment of gastric varices.
This Special Issue aims to provide an overview of the clinical applications of diagnostic and therapeutic EUS. Original articles and reviews about the indications, patient preparation, technical aspects and adverse events associated with EUS examination of the hepatobiliary and gastrointestinal tract are welcome.
Special interest will be given to cutting-edge technology, as well as an overview of the current guidelines applied in daily clinical practice.
Prof. Dr. Nicola Muscatiello
