Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) is an advanced, minimally invasive procedure that combines endoscopy and ultrasound technology to obtain highly detailed images of the digestive tract and nearby organs, including the pancreas, liver, gallbladder, bile ducts, and lymph nodes. EUS plays a vital role in the early diagnosis, staging, and treatment planning of gastrointestinal and pancreatic diseases.
Our experienced gastroenterologists perform Endoscopic Ultrasound using state-of-the-art equipment to provide accurate diagnosis, guide minimally invasive procedures, and ensure the highest standard of patient care.
Endoscopic Ultrasound is a specialized procedure in which a thin, flexible endoscope with a miniature ultrasound probe at its tip is passed through the mouth or rectum. This allows the doctor to capture high-resolution images of the digestive tract and surrounding organs that may not be visible on standard imaging tests. When necessary, Fine-Needle Aspiration (FNA) or Fine-Needle Biopsy (FNB) can be performed during the procedure to collect tissue samples for laboratory analysis.

Mild sedation is administered for comfort.
A flexible endoscope with an ultrasound probe is inserted through the mouth or rectum.
High-resolution ultrasound images of the digestive tract and nearby organs are obtained.
If required, tissue samples are collected using a fine needle (FNA/FNB).
The endoscope is carefully removed after the examination.
The procedure typically takes 30–60 minutes, depending on the complexity of the evaluation.
