Purpose of reviewCholangioscopy is a mini-invasive endoscopic procedure, which consists in a direct intraductal visualization of the biliary tract. The purpose of this review is to summarize the technique, the clinical applications, as well as future perspectives of cholangioscopy. Recent findingsNumerous technologic advances during the last decades have allowed for an improved utility and functionality, leading to a broader use of this procedure, for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes, in the setting of biliary diseases. Novel tools and emerging indications have been developed and more are yet to come. SummaryCholangioscopy can be performed by peroral, percutaneous transhepatic or intra-operative transcystic or transcholedochal access. Clinical applications of cholangioscopy are multiple, ranging from visual impression and optical guided biopsies of indeterminate biliary strictures to the management of difficult stones , guidance before biliary stenting and retrieval of migrated ductal stents. Multiple devices such as lithotripsy probes, biopsy forceps, snares and baskets have been developed to help achieve these procedures successfully. Cholangioscopy has improved the way biliary diseases can be visualized and treated. New technology, accessories, and applications are expected in the future.
