Economic Impact

Additionally, SpyGlass-DS introduces opportunities for increased downstream revenue associated with treatments for malignancies diagnosed during a cholangioscopy procedure. One study found that the downstream events attributable to the SpyGlass DS System yielded an overall - across both therapeutic and diagnostic uses of SpyGlass-DS - net positive impact of $2,942 over a 90-day post-procedure follow-up period (including the index cholangioscopy procedure).4
ERCP with cholangioscopy is associated with a decrease in costs compared to ERCP alone.5  
$2,942 Impact Over a 90-Day Post-Procedure Follow-up Period
