摘要

Endoscopic ultrasound(EUS)is a minimally invasive diagnostic and therapeutic modality with a number of established as well as evolving uses in patients with chronic liver disease.Compared to other diagnostic tools such as cross-sectional imaging or conventional endoscopy,EUS has been shown to increase diagnostic sensitivity and therapeutic success for many clinical scenarios and applications with a low rate of adverse events.In this review,we discuss and focus on the current and growing role of EUS in the evaluation and/or treatment of hepatobiliary masses,hepatic parenchymal disease,portal hypertension,esophageal and other varices,and indeterminate biliary strictures.
