"This a great book for those performing pancreaticobiliary endoscopy and are either looking to improve their skills or to get a better understanding of their limitations ... . This also provides a helpful explanation of what exactly was done to a patient when you resume that patient's care. This book is superior to others on the same topic that I have read because of its ease of reading, the great pictures that aid in understanding, and its conciseness." (Colin Wolslegel, Doody's Book Reviews, June, 2017)
