Core Tip Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided shear wave elastography provides real-time, quantitative assessment of tissue stiffness during standard EUS examinations. Current evidence supports its value in staging chronic pancreatitis, monitoring autoimmune pancreatitis, and assessing liver fibrosis with diagnostic accuracy comparable to vibration-controlled transient elastography. While feasibility and reproducibility are consistently high, the lack of standardized protocols and validated cut-off values limits routine application. Large-scale prospective studies are essential to define its role in clinical practice and establish EUS-shear wave elastography as a reliable tool in precision gastroenterology.
