Sommario/riassunto

This comprehensive guide, edited by Frank G. Gress and Thomas J. Savides, provides an authoritative exploration of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), a crucial tool in the diagnosis and management of gastrointestinal (GI) disorders. The fourth edition includes new chapters focusing on therapeutic procedures using metal stents, emphasizing a practical 'how-to' approach for GI endoscopists. With contributions from esteemed experts in the field, the book traces the history of EUS from its inception in the 1980s to its current status as an indispensable technology in GI medicine. It aims to enhance the training and dissemination of EUS knowledge, improve clinical practice, and support ongoing research. The text is intended for medical professionals interested in understanding and utilizing EUS in their practice.
