Study Summary

The objective of this paired cohort study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of Endoscopic Ultrasound-fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) with rapid onsite evaluation (ROSE) compared to EUS-fine needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) without ROSE. If EUS-FNB without ROSE is shown to be non-inferior to the current standard of care of EUS-FNA with ROSE in pancreatic lesions, this study has the potential to make EUS-guided tissue acquisition more economical (with elimination for the need for cytopathology staff onsite) as well as provide core histological specimen without sacrificing the overall diagnostic yield.

Primary Outcome

Diagnostic accuracy will be defined as (true positive + true negative)/all participants in the arm.
