Endoscopic Procedures V: ERCP
0 Views •
2025
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a diagnostic procedure that combines endoscopy and fluoroscopy to diagnose and treat conditions related to the bile ducts, pancreatic ducts, and gallbladder. This procedure is beneficial for identifying and addressing blockages, gallstones, strictures, and tumors within the biliary or pancreatic systems. ERCP is both diagnostic and therapeutic, offering the ability to visualize and treat identified problems in one session. Patient...

Culturing Murine Spiral Ganglion Neuron Explants on Multielectrode Arrays

2025
This video demonstrates the process for isolating spiral ganglion explants from the inner ear and co-culturing them with the organ of Corti on a multielectrode array. Spiral ganglia are carefully extracted and sectioned into smaller tissue sections or explants. These explants are cultured on the multielectrode array's active area to promote neuronal process outgrowth.

Label-Free Neutrophil Separation from Tracheal Secretion Using Spiral Microfluidics Channel

2025
This video demonstrates separating neutrophils from tracheal secretions using a microfluidic device with spiral channels. The device achieves efficient separation based on cell size by utilizing varying thicknesses and trapezoidal-shaped channels. The interplay between forces results in large neutrophils accumulating near the inner wall while erythrocytes and mucin aggregates remain near the outer wall, ensuring effective neutrophil separation.

We present a protocol to culture primary murine spiral ganglion neuron explants on multi electrode arrays to study neuronal response profiles and optimize stimulation parameters. Such studies aim to improve the neuron-electrode interface of cochlear implants to benefit hearing in patients as well as the energy consumption of the device.

Standardization of Basket Use in Sialendoscopy: A Ten-Year Retrospective Study
0 Views •
2025
We present the standardization of the basket use in sialendoscopy for obstructive sialolithiasis in a consecutive ten-year series of patients with obstructive salivary gland, describing localization, stone evaluation, size estimation, choosing basket type, and choosing approach technique (Frontal, Side-to-Side, Back-to-Forward) to achieve a high success rate in its removal.
FAQs
Its capture cycle depends on controlled movement of the catheter and basket. The operator opens the flexible wire basket within the duct, positions it around the obstructive material, and then retracts the catheter so the basket closes around the target. This coordinated opening and closure helps hold material securely during extraction.
Mechanical fragmentation can support removal when a biliary stone is too large for straightforward extraction. Certain basket designs help break the stone into smaller pieces before or during withdrawal. This capability extends the technique beyond simple capture and may assist efforts to clear obstructive material from the bile duct.
Controlled retraction brings the basket and captured material back through the endoscope while maintaining the basket’s grip. The catheter links the operator’s movement to the device inside the duct, allowing the target to be surrounded, held, and withdrawn. This sequence is central to converting capture into actual removal.
Successful removal can help reestablish biliary drainage, which is the flow of bile through the ducts. Improved drainage may reduce obstruction-related jaundice, infection, and pain. The clinical value therefore extends beyond retrieving a stone or other material: clearing the blockage addresses the underlying source of these complications.
During ERCP, the device is guided through the endoscope toward the obstructed bile duct. The operator opens the basket at the target, positions it around the stone or other material, and retracts the catheter to close and capture it. The basket is then withdrawn so the material can be extracted.
Clinicians may use an ERCP spiral basket when obstructive material is located in the bile ducts and requires endoscopic removal. It is particularly relevant to therapeutic, rather than purely diagnostic, ERCP because the device supports an intervention aimed at clearing the obstruction and improving biliary drainage.
