Objective To explore the value of Artis zeego robot imaging system endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography （ERCP） for biliary calculi. Methods ERCP was performed on 12 patients with tract dilation, diagnosed by B ultrasonography. used simultaneously to acquire 3D images and reconstruction. The diagnostic consistency assessed based endoscopy surgery if necessary. Results rotating acquisition reconstruction were in patients. All diagnosis coincided those findings, achieving a rate 100%. Patients extrahepatic bile duct stones uncertain number （n = 2）, suspected calculi （ n 1 ） intrahepatic 2） under all system. Conclusion During ERCP, image is helpful precise stones.
