Response to “NIDDK diseases workshop on endoscopic ultrasound and related technologies: History of EUS”

We appreciate the historical details from Drs DiMagno and DiMagno,1,2 who were intimately involved with the development of EUS technology. We regret overlooking some of the important contributions of those authors and others. The purpose of the workshop3,4 was not to review the details surrounding the early history of EUS but to provide a review of current applications of EUS in the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic disease and to identify research priorities for the future.
