Table 2 Consensus statement 1
POCPS is now an important additional tool during ERCP |
Recommendation Grade B |
Quality of evidence: 2++ |
Direct visualization and the ability to sample and treat lesions aids in the care of patients by providing the correct diagnosis and allowing definitive treatment of lesions |
Cholangiopancreatoscopy through an ERCP catheter is a simple, safe and effective procedure for diagnosing pancreatobiliary diseases |
Intraductal peroral cholangioscopy and pancreatoscopy-sampling techniques appear to offer an advantage over fluoscopy-guided ERCP sampling techniques for the diagnosis of pancreatobiliary lesions |
