This study tests whether an AI tool can help doctors find the right spot to place a tube during ERCP. It may help make the procedure quicker and safer for you.
This trial tests whether virtual reality training can help surgeons perform laparoscopic gallbladder removal more effectively. It is meant for people scheduled for planned (non-emergency) gallbladder surgery due to gallstones or long-term gallbladder inflammation.
This study is testing whether doing a small cut in the bile duct opening (a procedure called sphincterotomy) before surgery can help people with pancreatitis caused by gallstones, especially when they are too ill for surgery. The aim is to see if this preventive step can reduce complications or improve recovery.
This trial tests a special scope that helps doctors see inside the bile duct during an ERCP procedure. It may help people with blocked bile ducts that can't be treated with standard methods.
This study compares two different ways of guiding a scope inside the bile duct to remove “complicated” bile duct stones. It may help find which technique is safer and works better for stone removal in adults.
This trial tests a new way to diagnose and treat gallstones or bile duct narrowing without surgery, using a needle through the skin (percutaneous treatment). It is for people whose condition could not be fixed with an endoscope.
