Interventions
A FNA needle will be used to biopsy the pancreatic mass. The rates of diagnostic accuracy (%) will be assessed. Diagnostic accuracy is defined as the proportion of patients in whom a definitive diagnosis can be obtained within a predetermined number of FNA passes.
The proportion of patients (%) in whom a histological tissue can be obtained when performing a biopsy of the pancreas using a specific needle will be assessed.
