What is an ERCP Endoscopy?

ERCP endoscopy, or Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography, is a procedure used to diagnose and treat problems in the bile ducts, pancreas, and gallbladder. It is a combination of endoscopy and z-ray imagining that allow doctors to diagnose and treat various conditions.

During the procedure, a flexible tube with a light and camera is inserted into the patient's mouth and down into the stomach and small intestine. It is then used to guide a small tube into the bile ducts and pancreas, allowing the doctor to take images to diagnose any problems.
