Trial Outcomes & Findings for Core Biopsy Endo Sonography Study Evaluation of the Significance of the Pro-core® Needle (NCT NCT02181140)

NCT ID: NCT02181140

Last Updated: 2019-06-18

Results Overview

Diagnostic accuracy of Pro-core needle (22 G) will be compared to conventional fine needle aspiration (22 G). Therefore EUS-FNA with both needles is undertaken in a random order in each lesion. For Pro-core needle, a histological / cytological diagnosis and quality assessment will be made by pathologists.For Echotip aspiration needle, reference cytology evaluation is done by cytology experts. The histopathological diagnosis after surgery or the clinical follow up of at least one year after EUS FNA is current standard.
