Summary

Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is a highly sensitive and specific method in diagnosing solid pancreatic lesions. Rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) of the aspirate by a cytopathologist improves specimen adequacy and diagnostic accuracy while reducing the number of needle passes. As this increases costs and implicates availability issues, the investigators aimed to evaluate the utility of ROSE by the endosonographer in guiding EUS-FNA of solid pancreatic lesions.
