OR
There are no echocardiography/ultrasound findings associated with [disease name]. However, an echocardiography/ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of [disease name], which include [complication 1], [complication 2], and [complication 3].
Echocardiography/Ultrasound
- Endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) may be used to obtain histologic specimens from pancreas.
- EUS-FNA has low sensitivity but if positive, does not require surgery.[1][2]
