Endoscopic Ultrasonography of the Pancreas
Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America, 1995The pancreas is the most technically demanding area to image with EUS. This technique, however, has found a clinical niche in evaluating patients with pancreatic cancer to determine resectability and likely will play a prominent role in the future in diagnosis through ultrasonographically directed FNA.

Endoscopic ultrasonography in pancreatitis
Annals of the College of Surgeons of Hong Kong, 2000Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is a useful imaging modality in the investigation of pancreatitis which provides a high‐resolution image of the pancreas and adjacent structures. In patients with ‘idiopathic’ pancreatitis diagnosed by conventional radiologic methods, EUS may help to identify the aetiology by detecting occult pancreatic neoplasm ...

Quality Indicators for Endoscopic Ultrasonography
The American Journal of Gastroenterology, 2006Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) has become integral to the diagnosis and staging of gastrointestinal (GI) and mediastinal mass lesions. EUS-guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA) allows the endoscopist to obtain tissue or fluid for cytologic and chemical analysis, adding to the procedure’s utility.

Endoscopic ultrasonography: a preliminary report
Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 1985In order to define normal endoscopic ultrasonographic anatomy with particular emphasis on the pancreas, we studied 25 patients using a prototype ultrasound fiberoptic endoscope (model GF-UM1) and endoscopic ultrasound observation unit (model EU-M1) developed by the Olympus Corporation.
