From diagnostic to therapeutic procedures, Endosonography, 3rd Edition is an easy-to-access, highly visual guide covering everything you need to effectively perform EUS, interpret your findings, diagnose accurately, and choose the best treatment course. World-renowned endosonographers help beginners apply endosonography in staging cancers, evaluating chronic pancreatitis, and studying bile duct abnormalities and submucosal lesions. Practicing endosonographers can learn cutting-edge techniques for performing therapeutic interventions such as drainage of pancreatic pseudocysts and EUS-guided anti-tumor therapy. Meticulous updates, electronic access to the fully searchable text, videos detailing various methods and procedures—and more—equip you with a complete overview of all aspects of EUS.

“This book integrates scientific data, experts’ knowledge, evidence based-medicine and technical data into clinical gastrointestinal practice in a clear and concise manner.”Reviewed by J Gastrointestin Liver Dis, Dec 2014

“…a stand-alone reference for an EUS-trainee with no need for further supplementary literature to get started”Reviewed by Arab Journal of Gastroenterology, Jan 2015
