Figure 9 Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
Endoscopic ultrasonography-elastographic image (left side) shows a markedly hard area at the site of the low-echo tumor area (right side) and distribution of slightly soft spots in its interior. Histopathologic examination confirmed that the hard area contained a large amount of fibrous tissue, and the internal soft spots were aggregations of ducts atypical (of various sizes).
