Endoscopic Ultrasound Shear Wave Elastography in Solid Pancreatic Lesions
Diagnostic Accuracy of Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Shear Wave Elastography (EUS-SWE) in Solid Pancreatic Lesions: A Prospective Single-Center Study
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 9 Nov 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The aim of this prospective study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of endoscopic ultrasound-guided shear wave elastography (EUS-SWE) in patients with solid pancreatic lesions. During a clinically indicated EUS with fine-needle biopsy, tissue stiffness will be measured by shear wave elastography in the pancreatic lesion and in the adjacent normal pancreatic parenchyma. Elastography values will be compared with the final cytological/histological diagnosis in order to assess the ability of EUS-SWE to differentiate malignant from benign lesions and to correlate stiffness with histological findings.
