Correlation between endoscopic ultrasound features and exocrine pancreatic function in chronic pancreatitis.

Background: Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is the most sensitive method for diagnosing chronic pancreatitis (CP) in its early stages, and Rosemont Classification (RC) is used for its evaluation. Data on the correlation between EUS features and pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (PEI) are limited. We investigated the correlation between the EUS findings and PEI.
