Background and Aim
Qualitative diagnosis for gastric submucosal tumors (SMT) is not easy. Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided fine‐needle aspiration (EUS‐FNA) in combination with EUS‐elastography (EUS‐EG) is reported useful for qualitatively diagnosing pancreatic tissues. We prospectively studied whether EUS‐EG could be useful in qualitative diagnosis of gastric SMT.
Methods
We prospectively registered...
Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is currently well established as a diagnostic method for the evaluation of pancreatic mass lesions. Diagnostic EUS might be divided into two broad categories; it is an imaging method, and also a device for obtaining cytopathology and histopathology.
