Do we need elastography for EUS?

Endosc Ultrasound. 2020 Sep-Oct;9(5):284-290. doi: 10.4103/eus.eus_25_20.

Abstract

We recently introduced a series of papers "What should be known prior to performing EUS exams." In Part I, the authors discussed which clinical information and whether other imaging modalities are needed before embarking EUS examinations. In Part II, technical controversies on how EUS is performed were discussed from different points of view. In this article, important practical issues regarding EUS elastography will be raised and controversially discussed from very different points of view.

Keywords: EUS; EUS examinations; Elastography.
