Texas Gastroenterology Center PLLC offers a state-of-the-art diagnostic procedure called Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS). By combining endoscopy and ultrasound technology, EUS allows our expert gastroenterologists to obtain detailed images of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and surrounding structures, providing valuable insights for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) is a minimally invasive procedure that utilizes an endoscope equipped with an ultrasound probe. This advanced technique allows our gastroenterologists to obtain high-resolution ultrasound images of the digestive organs, such as the pancreas, bile ducts, and nodules within the GI tract. EUS provides unparalleled visualization of internal structures, aiding in diagnosing and staging various GI conditions.
Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) plays a critical role in the evaluation and diagnosis of several GI conditions, including:
EUS enables the assessment of pancreatic tumors, cysts, and inflammation, assisting in detecting early-stage pancreatic cancer and guiding appropriate treatment strategies.
By visualizing the bile ducts and gallbladder, EUS helps identify stones, strictures, or other abnormalities that may cause biliary obstruction, aiding in managing conditions like choledocholithiasis or biliary strictures.
EUS allows for the precise characterization of submucosal lesions within the GI tract, aiding in diagnosing conditions such as gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) or leiomyomas.
