To Compare EUS and MRCP in Detecting Choledocholithiasis in Patients of Intermediate Risk of Choledocholithiasis

A Recent Meta analysis, showed pooled sensitivity and specificity were 97% and 90 for EUS and 87% and 92 for MRCP . This meta analysis includes only 5 studies, smaller sample size in each study, significant heterogeneity in reference standards ranged from ERCP and Intra operative cholangiography (IOC) to clinical follow up for negative patients . Furthur validation of EUS Vs MRCP is needed in detecting common bile duct caliculi in intermediate risk of choledocholithiasis To date Randamized control trail comparing EUS Vs MRCP in detecting Choledocholithiasis lacking , hence the investigators aimed a Randamized control trail determining and comparing the sensitivity and specificity of EUS and MRCP in diagnosing Choledocholithiasis.
