First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study will test whether a special ultrasound technique called elastography can help doctors tell the difference between harmless and cancerous growths in the chest and digestive tract. About 35 adults will get an endoscopic ultrasound with elastography, and the results will be checked against tissue samples. If accurate, this method could reduce the need for invasive biopsies.
