Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is an advanced procedure combining endoscopy with high-frequency ultrasound imaging to produce detailed pictures of the digestive tract wall and nearby organs — including the pancreas, bile ducts, liver, and lymph nodes. It provides significantly better resolution than external (transabdominal) ultrasound for evaluating these structures.

​

When is EUS Used?​​

​​

• Evaluation and staging of pancreatic masses and cysts

• Detection of bile duct stones not seen on other imaging

• Staging of esophageal, gastric, and rectal cancers

• Evaluation of submucosal lesions in the GI tract

• Guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) biopsy of lymph nodes or masses

• Evaluation of chronic pancreatitis
