Tu1344 VALUE OF CONTRAST-ENHANCED HARMONIC EUS WITH ENHANCEMENT PATTERN FOR DIAGNOSIS OF PANCREATIC CANCER: A META-ANALYSIS

Current imaging modalities are limited in their ability to distinguish pancreatic cancer (PC) from non-neoplastic pancreatic lesions. The diagnostic use of contrast-enhanced endoscopic ultrasonography (CE-EUS) has increased, and its utility has been reported. Recently, contrast-enhanced harmonic EUS (CH-EUS) was reported to facilitate imaging of parenchymal perfusion and microvessels in pancreatobiliary diseases, leading to a high diagnostic...
