Study Overview

EUS Examination Using EndoSound Vision System vs. Standard Echoendoscope

This is a randomized trial to compare the standard echoendoscope with the newly developed EndoSound Visual System in the evaluation of lesions in the gastrointestinal tract.

Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is the gold standard for evaluation and biopsy of lesions in the pancreaticobiliary tract, subepithelial lesions in the gastrointestinal tract and luminal cancer staging due to its high sensitivity and specificity. Endoscopic ultrasound examination is performed by echoendoscopes, which are endoscopes with an ultrasound probe at the distal end to allow endoscopic ultrasound evaluation. A new endoscopic ultrasound system - the EndoSound Visual System has now been developed for endoscopic ultrasound examination. The EndoSound Visual System is a device that can be attached externally to upper gastrointestinal endoscopes, thereby converting a standard endoscope into an echoendoscope which can then be used to perform an EUS examination. The aim of this randomized trial is to compare the standard echoendoscope with the newly developed EndoSound Visual System in the evaluation of lesions in the gastrointestinal tract.

Primary Outcome MeasuresMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Rate of successful completion of the requisite EUS examinationRate of successful completion of the requisite examination during EUS between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes will be assessed, compared as a percentage of successfully completed examinations between the standard echoendoscope and Endosound Vision System.1 day
Secondary Outcome MeasuresMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Ease of maneuverability of the deviceThe ease of maneuverability during EUS between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes will be assessed, based on a rating scale of 1 to 5 (whereby 1 is the most easy to maneuver and 5 is the most difficult to maneuver).1 day
Quality of EUS imagingThe quality of EUS imaging during EUS between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes will be assessed, based on a rating scale of 1 to 5 (whereby 1 is the best quality imaging and 5 is the worst quality imaging).1 day
Ease of performing tissue acquisitionThe ease of performing tissue acquisition during EUS between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes will be assessed, based on a rating scale of 1 to 5 (whereby 1 is the most easy to perform and 5 is the most difficult to perform).1 day
