Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is a specialized endoscopic procedure that combines endoscopy with ultrasound imaging. A special endoscope equipped with an ultrasound transducer at its tip is passed through the mouth or rectum into the digestive tract. The ultrasound transducer emits sound waves that create detailed images of the walls of the digestive tract and nearby organs, such as the pancreas, gallbladder, and lymph nodes. EUS provides a unique advantage over standard endoscopy by allowing visualization of structures that lie outside the lining of the digestive tract, which are not visible with regular endoscopy. It is particularly valuable for evaluating the depth of tumors in the esophagus, stomach, rectum, and pancreas, as well as for detecting and staging pancreatic cancer, evaluating gallstones and bile duct abnormalities, and identifying enlarged lymph nodes. EUS can also be used to guide fine-needle aspiration (FNA) or biopsy of lesions in these areas, allowing for tissue diagnosis without the need for surgery. The procedure is typically performed under sedation and is a powerful tool for diagnosing and staging various gastrointestinal and related disorders.
