Core Tip	Endoscopy is expanding beyond its traditional hemostatic role in portal hypertension into an integrated tool that expands its clinical potential. Advances in endoscopic ultrasound-based procedures allow for a comprehensive single-session evaluation of disease severity and bleeding risk. This endo-hepatology approach facilitates risk stratification and more informed clinical decision-making and a shift toward more personalized care in patients with chronic liver disease.
