Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP); diagnostic, including collection of specimen(s) by brushing or washing, when performed
AI EXPLANATION: A diagnostic endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is an examination used to view the bile ducts and pancreatic ducts. During the procedure, a doctor guides a thin, flexible tube equipped with a camera through the mouth and stomach into the small intestine, then injects a contrast dye to capture detailed X-ray images of the ducts. The clinician may also collect small fluid or cell samples using brushing or washing techniques to help identify blockages, gallstones, or other issues.
