Combining contrast harmonic and elastography during EUS examination of pancreatic tumors increases diagnostic accuracy

We recently observed an increasing interest for the investigation of endoscopic ultrasound elastography (EUS-E) and contrast harmonic (CH-EUS) in the differential diagnosis of pancreatic masses. In this field, the diagnostic accuracy of EUS-guided tissue acquisition is still sub-optimal (<90%) [1].
