EUS vs ERC for Bile Duct Stones: Study Results by Ossama Abd Al-amier is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This study compares the diagnostic accuracy and complications of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) versus endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC) in patients with an intermediate risk of common bile duct stones. Results indicate that EUS is more sensitive than ERC for detecting smaller stones and does not increase the risk of subsequent endoscopic procedures. The findings suggest that an EUS-first approach is preferable, particularly for patients with an undilated CBD, to minimize complications such as post-E
