Whole clinical process in a patient with portal hypertensive biliopathy: a case report
Portal hypertensive biliopathy is characterized by abnormalities in the biliary tract secondary to portal hypertension, especially extrahepatic portal vein obstruction. Most patients are asymptomatic; only about 20% have clinical symptoms.

Bile obstruction by ascaris resolved through endoscopy. Clinical case
Human parasitism is a continuous public health problem. It is estimated that 25% of the world’s population is affected by some parasitism. Ascaris lumbricoides is the most widely distributed helminthiasis at a cosmopolitan level. The case of a mechanical

Background and aim: Endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainage is an alternative to failed endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. Unfortunately, this procedure remains relatively less explored in Egypt due to its high cost, lack of adequate ...

Transfer Learning for Endoscopic Image Classification [PDF]
In this paper we propose a method for transfer learning of endoscopic images. For transferring between features obtained from images taken by different (old and new) endoscopes, we extend the Max-Margin Domain Transfer (MMDT) proposed by Hoffman et al. in order to use L2 distance constraints as regularization, called Max-Margin Domain Transfer with L2 ...

Abstract Objectives Precut sphincterotomy is often performed when bile duct cannulation is difficult; however, the former has a higher risk of complications than conventional methods. Early precut reduces the risk of post‐endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis (PEP).

Self-supervised Dense 3D Reconstruction from Monocular Endoscopic Video [PDF]
We present a self-supervised learning-based pipeline for dense 3D reconstruction from full-length monocular endoscopic videos without a priori modeling of anatomy or shading. Our method only relies on unlabeled monocular endoscopic videos and conventional multi-view stereo algorithms, and requires neither manual interaction nor patient CT in both ...

Stents are tubular devices made of plastic or metal. Endoscopic stenting is the most common treatment for obstruction of the common bile duct or of the main pancreatic duct, but also employed for the treatment of bilio-pancreatic leakages, for preventing

Deep Learning-based Accelerated MR Cholangiopancreatography without Fully-sampled Data [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to accelerate MR cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) acquisitions using deep learning-based (DL) reconstruction at 3T and 0.55T. A total of 35 healthy volunteers underwent conventional two-fold accelerated MRCP scans at field strengths of 3T and 0.55T.
