Résumé

Les agents de contraste associés à des techniques spécifiques d’échoendoscopie de contraste ont ouvert des possibilités excitantes pour améliorer la capacité diagnostique de l’échoendoscopie (EE). Le principal domaine d’application est la caractérisation des lésions focales. Les tumeurs pancréatiques sont les cibles les plus étudiées, mais bien d’autres applications seront développées, sans aucun doute. Parmi les dernières évolutions technologiques, il s’agit certainement de la plus prometteuse pour le développement de l’EES à l’avenir.

Abstract

Ultrasound contrast agents in combination with contrast-specific scanning techniques have opened up exciting possibilities of further improving the diagnostic capability of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS). The main field of application is characterization of focal lesions. Pancreatic tumors are the targets studied most, but a lot of other applications will no doubt be developed. Among all the latest technological evolutions, it is certainly the most promising for development of EUS in the future.
