(IF 2.9) Pub Date : 2023-10-27 Patrick T Magahis, Donevan Westerveld, Malorie Simons, David L Carr-Locke, Kartik Sampath, Reem Z Sharaiha, SriHari Mahadev
Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) is frequently used to obtain core samples of solid lesions. Here, we describe and evaluate a novel hydrostatic stylet (HS) technique designed to optimize core sample acquisition, reporting diagnostic yield, efficacy, and safety relative to the conventional stylet slow-pull (SP) technique.
