NCT ID: NCT02167074 Completed - Lymph Nodes Clinical Trials

Comparing a 25G EUS Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA) Device With a 20G EUS

ASPRO
Start date: February 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to compare the diagnostic accuracy of two EUS-guided tissue acquisition devices; the 25G Echotip Ultra Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA) device and the 20G Echotip ProCore Fine Needle Biopsy (FNB) device.

NCT ID: NCT01033695 Completed - Pancreatic Cancer Clinical Trials

Interobserver Agreement of Endoscopic Ultrasonography and Endoscopic Sonoelastography in the Evaluation of Lymph Nodes

Start date: January 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is an important part of the pre-treatment evaluation of patients with upper gastrointestinal tract cancer (esophageal, gastric, pancreatic and liver cancer). When planning the optimal therapy in patients with upper gastrointestinal malignancies it is essential to know the exact lymph node stage. Recently endoscopic sonoelastography(ES) has been added to conventional EUS examination and may provide complementary information to distinguish benign for malignant lymph nodes. The N-stage relates to the treatment choice and the prognosis, and it is therefore of particular interest to know the interobserver agreement in operator dependent techniques. This study evaluate the interobserver agreement of EUS and ES evaluation og lymph nodes.
