MOSE to Improve the Diagnostic Accuracy During EUS-guided FNA Using a 19-gauge Needle for Solid Lesions

December 4, 2018 updated by: Charing Chong, MD, Chinese University of Hong Kong

Macroscopic On-site Quality Evaluation of Biopsy Specimens to Improve the Diagnostic Accuracy During EUS-guided FNA Using a 19-gauge Needle for Solid Lesions: a Multicenter Prospective Randomized Controlled Study

The technique of macroscopic on-site evaluation (MOSE) has recently been advocated for estimating the adequacy of a core specimen for histological diagnosis during EUS-FNA using a 19-gauge needle. How it compares to the conventional technique of tissue acquisition during EUS-FNA is uncertain.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the quantity and quality of tissue, and the diagnostic ability of MOSE when compared with the conventional combined histologic-cytologic analysis.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Macroscopic on-site evaluation
EUS-FNA perform with a 19-gauge needle with macroscopic on-site evaluation.
Macroscopic on-site evaluation: any aspirated material on a glass slide for inspection of the presence of a macroscopic visible core (MVC). Length of MVC will be measured to determine the adequacy of that puncture.
Sham Comparator: Control
EUS-FNA perform with a 19-gauge needle with conventional techniques.
Conventional EUS-FNA
