Abstract
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is a sensitive method to evaluate the pancreas but its diagnostic capability for several diseases is limited. We compared the diagnostic yield of unenhanced EUS with that of contrast-enhanced EUS for focal pancreas lesions and identified and tested quantitative parameters of contrast enhancement.We performed a prospective tandem-controlled trial in which 101 patients with focal pancreas lesions (48 with masses, 28...
