Aim and Method: To describe confocal imaging criteria for pancreatic masses, lymph nodes or liver metastases identified during EUS procedures performed for pancreatic cancer staging (EUS-nCLE), while evaluating also the feasibility and safety of nCLE examination. The hypothesis is that EUS-nCLE could allow targeted tissue sampling of pancreatic lesions resulting in more accurate diagnosis. XX patients were included all presenting with a clinical suspicion of pancreatic cancer or imaging studies showing a pancreatic mass. During the procedure an nCLE preloaded 19G FNA needle was advanced into the lesion under EUS guidance. A contrast agent was administered intravenously (2.5 ml fluorescein 10%). The data was stored digitally for post procedural analysis. Afterwards EUS-FNA was performed for cytology smears to enable a final pathological diagnosis. Correlations between the nCLE images and the conventional pathology were identified.
