Primary Outcome Measures:
  • accuracy of SpyBite biopsy forceps [ Time Frame: at scheduled Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) visit approximately 4-5 hours. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    The accuracy of the Spybite Biopsy forceps will be compared to cytology brush and RJ3 biopsy forcep sampling of any stricture found on Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)
