Sponsor's own description

Background and Objectives: Elastography can reflect the difference of tissue hardness, which helps to identify the difference of hardness between benign and malignant tissues. The aim of this study was to evaluate the value of endobronchial ultrasound elastography in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant intrathoracic lymph nodes. Materials and Methods: A total of 42 patients with intrathoracic lymphadenopathy required for EBUS-TBNA examination were prospectively enrolled. Firstly, All patients were evaluated by enhanced chest CT examination,the EBUS B-mode ultrasound and EBUS-guided elastography before EBUS-TBNA.Then, the investigators evaluated every lymph node by describing the characteristics of the CT image (Short diameter, texture, shape, boundary ,mean CT value), B-mode ultrasound (short diameter, echo characteristic, shape, boundary) and elastography (image type, grading score, strain rate, blue area ratio). Finally, the pathological results were used as the gold standard. the investigators compare the characteristics of the 3 evaluating methods alone and in combination between benign and malignant lymph nodes.
