Abstract

Indeterminate pancreatico-biliary strictures remain a difficult diagnostic dilemma with currently available endoscopic imaging. We present scanning fiber endoscopy as a novel platform for improving diagnostic accuracy and present three cases where this platform has been used successfully in human subjects. In all three cases, endoscopic retrograde cholangiography was performed using a standard side viewing endoscope and fluoroscopy to obtain biliary access. Once access was obtained, the scanning fiber endoscope was advanced into the bile duct and images were obtained.
