Study Summary

This is a randomized prospective clinical study comparing a fine needle biopsy device and an aspiration needle.

Primary Outcome

The primary objective of this study is to compare the total area of procured tissue between the FNA and FNB needles in patients undergoing EUS-guided sampling of pancreatic masses. Pancreatic masses sampled using the FNB needle should have a tissue area greater than the FNA needle because of the serrated design of the FNB needle tip. This will be measured using a specialized digital image analysis software. This hypothesis will be tested by comparing the total tissue area, tumor area within th

Interventions

  • DEVICE Acquire EUS Biopsy Device
