Endoscopic ultrasound in the diagnosis of acinar cell carcinoma of the pancreas: contrast-enhanced endoscopic ultrasound, endoscopic ultrasound elastography, and pathological correlation
We report a case series of five patients with pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma who received surgical treatment and compared the preoperative contrast-enhanced endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and EUS elastography patterns with the surgical specimens. The contrast-enhanced EUS indicated vascular tumors with gradual enhancement in four patients and a hypovascular tumor in one patient. The elastography...
متن کاملContrast-enhanced endoscopic ultrasound.
Compared to other imaging modalities, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) has limitations in terms of image enhancement. However, with the availability of contrast agents in ultrasonography, EUS has evolved. Contrast-enhanced Doppler EUS (CD-EUS) enhances Doppler signals from vessels and is useful for characterizing lesions detected by EUS. Moreover, contrast-enhanced harmonic EUS (CH-EUS) with second-...
متن کاملEndoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) Elastography
2007〉 Recent developments in ultrasound (US) data processing have made it possible to develop new software. The latest generation of US workstations incorporate a central computer allowing very precise processing of the US image. This has made possible the reconstruction of images like three-dimensional US, second harmonic imaging for detecting contrast agents following intravenous injection, a...
متن کاملEndoscopic ultrasound elastography
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) elastography is an imaging procedure used for the visualization of tissue elasticity during usual EUS examinations. EUS elastography can be accomplished real-time with state-of-the-art ultrasound systems, with the images being represented in transparent color superimposed on the conventional gray-scale B-mode scans. The aim of this review was to introduce the potenti...
متن کاملEndoscopic ultrasound and pancreas divisum.
Pancreas divisum is the most common congenital anatomic variation of the pancreatic ductal anatomy and in most of the individuals it is asymptomatic. However, in minority of individuals it is presumed to cause recurrent acute pancreatitis and chronic pancreatitis. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is the gold standard for its diagnosis, but is invasive and associated with significa...
