Core Tip

Core Tip: Non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding is still one of the challenging situations in clinical practice. Standard endoscopic hemostasis has shown to have a high successful bleeding control rate; however, in some types of bleeding, there is still a possibility for endoscopic treatment failure. Endoscopic ultrasound can give a better bleeding vessel visualization, and it has shown to be a promising tool for non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding management.
