Usefulness of Contrast-Enhanced Harmonic Endoscopic Ultrasonography for Diagnosis of Malignancy in Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm

Usefulness of Contrast-Enhanced Harmonic Endoscopic Ultrasonography for Diagnosis of Malignancy in Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm

Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) have a wide pathologic spectrum and it can be difficult to diagnose malignancy, including pathological grade. The aim of this study was to evaluate contrast-enhanced harmonic endoscopic ultrasonography (CH-EUS) for the diagnosis of malignant IPMN and...
