Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is a minimally invasive technology using a high-frequency ultrasound transducer that is incorporated into the tip of a conventional endoscope. This technique permits the diagnosis and staging of gastrointestinal lesions and mediastinal mass. EUS-guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA) enables operators to obtain tissue diagnosis of most visualized lesions. This paper reports on the technique of examination and indications for mediastinal and gastric EUS.
