ERCP Procedures

ERCP Procedures In Lexington, West Columbia & Lexington, SC

ERCPs are specialized procedures that use minimally invasive techniques and combine endoscopy and X-ray imaging to diagnose and treat disorders that affect your bile ducts and pancreas. During an ERCP procedure, a flexible endoscope is passed through your mouth and into your duodenum to access your bile and pancreatic ducts. This allows us to visualize and assess abnormalities, remove gallstones, place stents, and perform biopsies. Our ERCP procedures provide accurate diagnoses and effective treatments for your gastrointestinal conditions.

Why Are ERCP Procedures Necessary?

ERCPs are vital for patients experiencing gastrointestinal issues; they allow us to accurately diagnose and treat disorders affecting your bile ducts and pancreas. By combining endoscopy and X-ray imaging, ERCPs allow us to address these disorders and provide effective solutions for a wide range of gastrointestinal conditions.

How Are Your ERCPs Performed?

Our gastroenterologists will first insert a flexible endoscope through your mouth and into your duodenum, after which they will begin X-ray imaging to visualize your bile and pancreatic ducts and identify abnormalities such as gallstones or tumors. Once the procedure is complete, our gastroenterologists will remove the endoscope and monitor you closely during your recovery period. We use the results of our ERCP procedures to inform our treatment of your gastrointestinal conditions.
