Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I am delighted to introduce a collection dedicated to exploring “Novel Methods in Endoscopy-Guided Diagnosis” for patients with gastrointestinal, hepatic, and pancreatobiliary diseases. Endoscopy continues to evolve as a cornerstone of precision medicine, offering innovative diagnostic possibilities. This Special Issue focuses particularly on advanced techniques in magnifying endoscopy, endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), peroral cholangiopancreatoscopy, and artificial intelligence-guided endoscopy. It not only highlights advanced imaging techniques but also details various methods for tissue sampling, such as biopsies for gastrointestinal diseases, EUS-guided tissue acquisition, and cholangiopancreatoscopy-guided biopsies. These innovative approaches are transforming clinical practice and improving diagnostic accuracy. We welcome original research articles, case studies, case reports, and reviews on the various novel approaches that deepen our understanding of the role of endoscopy in challenging diseases.
Dr. Haruo Miwa
Guest Editor
