Preoperative Endoscopic Ultrasound Strain Elastography Has Limited Value for Predicting Intraoperative Pancreatic Texture: A Single‐Operator Pilot Study
In this pilot study, preoperative EUS-SE did not predict intraoperative pancreatic textures. Strain-based elastography alone appears to be insufficient for hardness stratification and should be complemented by more quantitative modalities.
