Figure 1 Quantitative EUS elastographic evaluation of (I) healthy pancreas (strain ratio, 1.82; area A, 0.25%), and 3 different pancreatic solid masses including (II) inflammatory mass (strain ratio, 4.08; area A, 0.14%); (III) pancreatic adenocarcinoma (strain ratio, 17.41; area A, 0.01%), and (IV) pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (insulinoma) (strain ratio, 56.73; area A, 0.01%). A, area A, representative of the mass; B, soft reference area; B/A (quotient), strain ratio. Gastroenterology , DOI: ( /j.gastro ) Copyright © 2010 AGA Institute Terms and Conditions
