Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography: a Comprehensive Review As a Single Diagnostic Tool

Abstract
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) was initially introduced in clinical practice as diagnostic tool. However, the presence of adverse events and the development of non-invasive techniques, such as magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), limited its role as a stand-alone diagnostic choice, modifying its role to the leader of therapeutic pancreatobiliary endoscopy. Despite technological advances, there are still conditions where non-invasive diagnostic modalities are inconclusive, such as indeterminate biliary and pancreatic duct strictures, primary sclerosing cholangitis functional stenoses, intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) and paediatric indications, such as congenital anatomical abnormalities. This narrative review aimed to identify and analyse indications of diagnostic ERCP, without the need for therapeutic manipulations.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
