Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is a viable and often preferred alternative to interventional and radiologic procedures, and the therapeutic applications of EUS continue to evolve. This evolution was catalyzed by the introduction of linear echoendoscopes that provide continuous imaging and observation of needles and by therapeutic devices that pass through large-caliber working channels. In this paper, we will discuss the spectrum of EUS-guided interventions that are currently available and in development.
内镜超声(EUS)是介入性和放射学检查的一种可行且通常更受青睐的替代方法,并且EUS的治疗应用仍在不断发展。线性超声内镜的引入推动了这一发展,它能提供连续成像并观察针具,同时还出现了可通过大口径工作通道的治疗设备。在本文中,我们将讨论目前可用及正在研发的EUS引导下的干预措施范围。
