Zusammenfassung

New tools have recently emerged that further improve the diagnostic performance of high end endosonography. Whilst elastography has been available for a while, contrast enhancing techniques are still very young with little experience existing in this field. The latest development is contrast enhanced low mechanical index endosonography (CELMI – EUS) which became commercially available at the beginning of 2010. This technique requires contrast specific software whereas the pre-existing technique of contrast enhanced high mechanical index endosonography (CEHMI – EUS) does not. The aim of this study was to compare…
