title: [Advances in the diagnosis of pancreatic affections. The endoscopic retrograde pancreaticography (author's transl)].
abstract: On the basis of our experience from 170 endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreaticographies the value of this method for the diagnosis of pancreatic affections is confirmed. It permits the assessment of chronic pancreatitis. In the majority of cases a safe diagnosis of pancreatic tumours is possible when the clinical picture and additional X - ray procedures are also considered.
