Abstract
Cholangiopancreatoscopy with the SpyGlass system is a direct and minimally invasive examination method in which the lesions in the pancreatic bile tract can be observed directly by inserting an ultra-fine endoscope through the biopsy channel of a duodenoscope. Compared with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), enhanced computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and endoscopic ultrasonography, cholangiopancreatoscopy with the SpyGlass system has unique advantages for observing and identifying lesions originating in the pancreatic bile duct. In recent years, with the upgrading of endoscopic equipment and the improvement of operating technology, the application of cholangiopancreatoscopy is becoming more and more widespread. This article reviews the use of cholangiopancreatoscopy with the SpyGlass system for the diagnosis and treatment of pancreaticobiliary disease.
