Shear Wave Elastography Versus Strain Elastography With Histogram Analysis in Solid Pancreatic Lesions

Not Applicable

• Conditions: Endoscopic Ultrasonography
• Interventions: Diagnostic Test: Elastography EUS

• Registration Number: NCT05448729
• Lead Sponsor: Iuliu Hatieganu University of Medicine and Pharmacy

Brief Summary

to assess the diagnostic value of strain elastography EUS and shear wave EUS in solid pancreatic lesions

Detailed Description

Three measurements of strain ratio elastography and three measurements of shear wave elastography with VPN\> 20% will be performed in the same solid pancreatic lesions. The results will be compared in the groups of adenocarcinomas, neuroendocrine tumors and benign solid pancreatic lesions.
