Protocol for a Multi-Center Confirmatory Trial to Evaluate the Differential Diagnostic Performance of Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasonography Using Perflubutane in Patients with a Pancreatic Mass: A Multicenter Prospective Study

Protocol for a Multi-Center Confirmatory Trial to Evaluate the Differential Diagnostic Performance of Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasonography Using Perflubutane in Patients with a Pancreatic Mass: A Multicenter Prospective Study

For pancreatic masses, an evaluation of their vascularity using contrast-enhanced ultrasonography can help improve their characterization. This study was designed to evaluate the utility and safety of contrast-enhanced transabdominal ultrasonography (CE-TUS) and endoscopic ultrasonography (CE-EUS) i...
