Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Diagnostic accuracy of CEUS FNA endosonography versus standard FNA endosonography in the etiological cyto histological of pancreatic solid tumors using histology core as comparison between the two methods	Diagnostic accuracy of CEUS FNA endosonography versus standard FNA endosonography in the etiological cyto histological of pancreatic solid tumors using histology core as comparison between the two methods	an average of 2 years
Secondary	Quality of histological specimen(histology core) obtained with the two types of FNA biopsies (contrast enhanced and standard)	Visual analogic scale	5 days
Secondary	Dysfunction in the two types of biopsies	failure or difficulty reports with each procedure (%)	day one
Secondary	Comparison between standand endosonography and contrast enhanced endosonography in obtaining a superior quality in obtaining histology core	Visual analogic scale	day one
