PROSPECTIVE ASSESSMENT OF THE DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMANCE OF ENDOSCOPIC ULTRASOUND-GUIDED FINE NEEDLE BIOPSY IN INTRA-ABDOMINAL MASS LESIONS
- Conditions
- ENDOSCOPIC ULTRASOUND-GUIDED FINE NEEDLE BIOPSY (EUS-FNB)ENDOSCOPIC ULTRASOUND-GUIDED FINE NEEDLE BIOPSY (EUS-FNB), Diagnostic performance, Intraabdominal mass lesion
- Registration Number
- TCTR20200823001
- Lead Sponsor
- Gastroenterological Association of Thailand (GAT)
- Brief Summary
EUS-FNB offered a high diagnostic yield in intra-abdominal solid lesions, especially for the detection of pancreatic cancer and mesenchymal tumor, where the performance of FNA could be limited. It required fewer passes to obtain adequate specimens with comparable technical performance and safety to FNA needles.
