Radiofrequency and malignant biliary strictures: An update

World Journal of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 2019
Malignant biliary strictures are usually linked to different types of tumors, mainly cholangiocarcinoma, pancreatic and hepatocellular carcinomas. Palliative measures are usually adopted in patients with nonresectable or borderline resectable biliary ...

Feasibility of Peroral Cholangioscopy in the Initial Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography for Malignant Biliary Strictures [PDF]

Diagnostics
Background: Peroral cholangioscopy (POCS) is valuable for assessing malignant biliary strictures; however, biliary drainage prior to POCS often hinders accurate diagnosis.

Artificial intelligence in endoscopic imaging for detection of malignant biliary strictures and cholangiocarcinoma: a systematic review

Annals of gastroenterology : quarterly publication of the Hellenic Society of Gastroenterology, 2023
Background Artificial intelligence (AI), when applied to computer vision using a convolutional neural network (CNN), is a promising tool in “difficult-to-diagnose” conditions such as malignant biliary strictures and cholangiocarcinoma (CCA).

Diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography to detect benign and malignant biliary strictures

Advanced Biomedical Research, 2021
Background: Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is a noninvasive method to detect pancreaticobiliary strictures. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of MRCP and detect sensitive and specific radiologic features ...

Optimal tissue sampling during ERCP and emerging molecular techniques for the differentiation of benign and malignant biliary strictures

Therapeutic Advances in Gastroenterology, 2021
Patients with cholangiocarcinoma have poor survival since the majority of patients are diagnosed at a stage precluding surgical resection, due to locally irresectable tumors and/or metastases.
