STAR Hospital in Jalandhar provides the best ERCP treatment in Jalandhar. ERCP is the procedure to examine the liver, pancreas, bile ducts, and gall bladder. It is performed with the help of endoscopy and x-ray. In this process, the medical team inserts the long, thin, flexible tube with a camera on the end, through the mouth and throat to the lower part of the stomach, the duodenum. A thin tube, catheter, is then inserted through the endoscope, which injects a special dye into the ducts that lead to the liver, pancreas and gallbladder, hence highlighting the area, and the x-ray is taken.

After this, the process starts, meanwhile, the other health staff monitors the vitals of the patient and makes sure about the comfort of the patient. The patient is asked to lay down and an endoscope is inserted through the mouth and slowly makes its way to the duodenum. The small camera on the endoscope sends video images to the monitor.
