Core Tip	This review summarizes the current status of the available evidence regarding the application of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) to patients with liver diseases, focusing on recent breakthroughs and its potential application on clinical practice. We highlight the emerging role of EUS in the study of parenchymal liver disease as well as in the diagnosis and classification of focal liver lesions. Finally, we emphasise the crucial role of EUS in the understanding of the complex collateral circulation in patients with portal hypertension.
