Abstract     Within the last years EUS has been proven save and effective in diagnostic of biliary diseases. Early use of EUS can provide the definite diagnosis and guide the therapy, which may include immediate endoscopic treatment in the same procedure. Furthermore, the development of sectorial linear EUS has made it possible, to obtain EUS guided fine needle aspiration cytology. One of the widest application of EUS is diagnosis of common bile duct stones. With inclusion in diagnostic and therapeutic decision-making algorithms, EUS has changed the approach to clinical management in a significant proportion of patients to a less invasive and risky strategy with less cost. Endoscopic ultrasound and endoscopic cholangiography with endoscopic papillotomy provide access to bile ducts and alove futher endoscopic treatment to achive normal function which can be disturbed because of many different reasons.
