Abstract

The diagnosis of early chronic pancreatitis (ECP) is challenging due to the lack of standardized diagnostic criteria. EUS has been considered a sensitive diagnostic modality for chronic pancreatitis (CP), with advancements in technique such as EUS-guided fine needle aspiration and biopsy (EUS-FNA/FNB) being developed. However, their role in the diagnosis of ECP remains unelucidated. This review thereby aimed to provide an overview of the clinical landscape of EUS in the field of ECP.
