Abstract

Patients who present with signs and symptoms suggesting a pancreatic neoplasm typically undergo initial imaging with transabdominal ultrasound or CT. When a pancreatic mass or fullness is identified, it may represent an inflammatory mass, benign process, or malignancy. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is performed commonly to further characterize the lesion, obtain a tissue diagnosis, and for staging. This article reviews the role of EUS for the diagnosis and staging of pancreatic tumors.

摘要

出现提示胰腺肿瘤的体征和症状的患者通常首先接受经腹部超声或CT检查。当发现胰腺肿块或饱满时，可能代表炎性肿块、良性病变或恶性肿瘤。通常会进行内镜超声检查（EUS）以进一步明确病变特征、获取组织诊断并进行分期。本文综述了EUS在胰腺肿瘤诊断和分期中的作用。
