The rising prevalence of pediatric hepato-pancreato-biliary disorders requires a closer examination of its utility. In this systematic review, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and clinical impact of endoscopic US in the pediatric population, concentrating on its diagnostic accuracy and therapeutic applications.

Purpose Of Review: Critical Care Echocardiography (CCE) is now established as an important tool in the intensive care unit (ICU). This paper aims to examine the expanding role of cardiovascular ultrasound in the ICU, focusing on its applications, benefits, and challenges, while highlighting recent advancements shaping the future of critical care echocardiography.
Recent Findings: Non-invasive echocardiographic measurement of hemodynamic parameters including stroke volume, cardiac output, left ventricular filling pressures, and pulmonary pressures have been well-validated against invasive measurements.

Background: Chronic coronary syndromes (CCS) occur commonly in the absence of flow-limiting epicardial coronary stenoses. Ischemia or angina with no obstructive coronary arteries (INOCA/ANOCA) may be caused by coronary microvascular disease, coronary artery spasm, myocardial bridging, diffuse atherosclerosis, or a combination of disorders.
Methods & Results: We highlight the new recommendations in the 2024 European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines on CCS relevant to the diagnosis and management of INOCA/ANOCA.
