| Core Tip |
Auxiliary techniques like elastography and contrast enhancement are being used during endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration/biopsy (EUS-FNA/B) to guide tissue acquisition from viable tumor tissue and improve diagnostic outcomes. However, the present meta-analysis reported comparable sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy between EUS-FNA/B with and without auxiliary techniques. Subgroup analysis of studies exclusively using contrast-enhanced harmonic-EUS-FNA/B, randomized studies, and studies reporting diagnostic outcomes after the first pass reported no difference between both modalities. Thus, using EUS-FNA/B with auxiliary techniques for pancreatic solid lesions does not provide any additional advantage over standard EUS-FNA/B. |
