Figure 3 Contrast-enhanced harmonics-endoscopic ultrasound-fine needle aspiration of solid pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
Standard endoscopic ultrasound view of a hypoenhanced, inhomogenous adenocarcinoma of the head of the pancreas, showing anechoic parts suggestive of necrosis. The contrast image (right) highlights these avascular parts of the lesion, and the needle inside is clearly seen as avoiding them.
