Abstract
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is increasingly used in the evaluation of hepatobiliary lesions and for obtaining liver biopsies. EUS-guided tissue acquisition is safe and effective, with high diagnostic yield and low major complication rate. This article reviews the techniques and clinical outcomes of EUS-guided tissue acquisition of hepatobiliary masses as well as EUS-guided liver biopsy.
