Indiana University in the United States a prospective study showed that, for biopsy specimens negative cytology results for the pancreatic mass, ultrasonic endoscope positioning for fine-needle aspiration biopsy is a very good supplementary examination

Winthrop University Hospital in New York, Denver Dr. Frank and his colleagues in the 1992-1996 suspected pancreatic cancer among the 102 patients with the above method, and check the accuracy of this method were evaluated. In these patients with percutaneous CT-fine needle aspiration biopsy examination or endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography cytological examination show negative results.

These patients ultrasonic endoscope positioning of fine-needle aspiration biopsy results showed that: 57 patients with positive cytology results, 37 patients with negative cytology results for the remaining eight patients were unable to confirm the diagnosis.

This method of performance for the reaction: two patients had gastric bleeding, have a history of recurrent pancreatitis patients had pancreatitis. By 1998, the positive results for 57 patients have died of pancreatic cancer. The remaining 45 patients in four were diagnosed during surgery for pancreatic adenocarcinoma, while three patients with chronic pancreatitis. The remaining 41 in ultrasonic endoscope positioning aspiration biopsy, the result was negative or uncertain of the research papers completed yet shown any symptoms of pancreatic cancer.

Researchers believe application of ultrasonic endoscope positioning advantages of a biopsy is a needle puncture can conduct real-time control, to determine the staging of pancreatic nodules. This technology also makes fine needle puncture many ways possible, and will not cause Percutaneous fine-needle aspiration biopsy may arise when disseminated malignant.
