EUS Examination Using EndoSound Vision System vs. Standard Echoendoscope

March 25, 2024 updated by: Orlando Health, Inc.

Randomized Trial of Endoscopic Ultrasound 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.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

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 Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Rate of successful completion of the requisite EUS examination
Time Frame: 1 day
Rate 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 Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Ease of maneuverability of the device
Time Frame: 1 day
The 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 imaging
Time Frame: 1 day
The 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 acquisition
Time Frame: 1 day
The 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
Diagnostic adequacy of procured specimen on onsite evaluation
Time Frame: 7 days
Rate of diagnostic adequacy of procured tissue specimen on onsite evaluation between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes.
7 days
Diagnostic adequacy of procured specimen in cell block
Time Frame: 7 days
Rate of diagnostic adequacy of procured tissue specimen in cell block between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes.
7 days
Diagnostic accuracy of procured specimen
Time Frame: 7 days
Rate of diagnostic accuracy of procured tissue specimen between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes.
7 days
Procedure duration
Time Frame: 1 day
Duration of procedure between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes.
1 day
Rate of procedure-related adverse events
Time Frame: 7 days
Rate of procedure-related adverse events between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes.
7 days
Procedure costs
Time Frame: 7 days
Costs associated with the endoscopic ultrasound procedures between the EndoSound Vision System and standard echoendoscopes.
