Core Tip	Artificial intelligence may help transform fluoroscopic cholangiogram interpretation during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) from subjective visual assessment to objective, reproducible decision support. Current applications include biliary stricture characterization, bile duct and stone segmentation, stone-extraction difficulty scoring, stent-length selection, papilla and cannula localization, post-ERCP pancreatitis prediction, and potential radiation-dose reduction. However, most evidence remains retrospective and early-stage. Future progress requires prospective validation, external testing, explainability, workflow integration, data governance, and multimodal physician-in-the-loop systems that combine fluoroscopy with endoscopic, endosonographic, and clinical data.
