This trial is testing a new way to biopsy (take a small tissue sample from) a solid mass in the pancreas to find out if it's cancer. It compares two approaches to make the diagnosis more accurate and faster.
This study looks at how well two types of ultrasound-guided biopsies (one using an endoscope, one using regular ultrasound) work for diagnosing pancreatic lesions. It may help you understand which biopsy method is more accurate and safer for people with pancreatic problems.
This trial compares different ways of collecting tissue samples from a pancreatic mass during an endoscopic ultrasound procedure. The goal is to see which technique gives the most accurate diagnosis with fewer complications, helping guide treatment decisions.
This trial compares two ways to check a suspicious spot in the pancreas: a special CT scan and a procedure called EUS with a biopsy, which takes a tiny tissue sample. The goal is to see which method is better at telling whether the spot is cancer or not, without surgery.
