Foreword
The pancreatobiliary region has one of the most complicated structures and physiological functions in our body. Endoscopic procedure in the region thus requires rather complicated techniques. This makes it difficult and time-consuming to explain pancreatobiliary diseases or pancreatobiliary endoscopy to patients and their families, or to deliver correct information to medical staff during training.
This book was specifically written to eliminate such difficulties and to increase the understanding and provision of medical information related to pancreatobiliary diseases and pancreatobiliary endoscopy in the shortest time possible.
Much time and effort has been invested in publishing this book so that medical staff specializing in pancreatobiliary diseases, e.g. specialists, fellows, residents, nurses and medical students, will be able to more easily understand the corresponding diseases and a variety of endoscopic treatments in a short period of time, while patients and their families will be able to gain better insights into the pancreatobiliary endoscopy needed by the patients.
My sincere thanks go to Professor Seok Ho Dong, the editor-in-chief, who has made arduous efforts for this book, and to all other editors who have contributed.

Preface
"Seeing is learning"
This is the creed of the authors bore in mind when they came together and agreed to bring out this kind of book. This volume contains illustrated figures of pancreatobiliary diseases as well as relevant ERCP procedures. You will be getting familiar with the anatomy and diseases of the pancreas and biliary tract while looking at the detailed illustrations. Besides, you will be able to understand various ERCP procedures with ease. The authors carried out painstaking search for figures from books or through the web and tried to put as many figures as possible. You can also get some useful information on commercially available accessories for ERCP in the final chapter. All the figures in this volume were modified and redrawn one by one to make the best illustrations.
I would like to express my hearty thanks to all the authors for their exceptional contributions and to the artist who dedicated himself to elaborate computer graphics.
