About this study
The aim of this study is to develop and validate an artificial intelligence system named iEUS-PCL (intelligent endoscopic ultrasound system-pancreatic cystic lesions) for detecting and multimodal, multi-class diagnosing pancreatic cystic lesions (PCL) during endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) examination.
Read the detailed description
This multicenter, prospective cohort study aims to develop and validate a multimodal artificial intelligence system named iEUS-PCL for the detection and differential diagnosis of PCL. The model was developed based on retrospectively collected EUS images, EUS features, clinical data and radiological imaging features of patients who underwent EUS examination. The diagnostic performance of iEUS-PCL will be evaluated prospectively in real-time EUS videos and compared with endosonographers' performance.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
iEUS-PCL(intelligent endoscopic ultrasound system- pancreatic cystic lesion)Device
The iEUS-PCL will automatically detect pancreatic cystic lesions and integrate the patients' EUS images, EUS features, clinical data and radiological imaging features to perform three classification tasks:
- binary classification: benign/malignant lesions;
- binary classification: mucinous/non-mucinous lesions;
- four-category classification: intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm/ mucinous cystic neoplasm/ serous cyst neoplasm/ pancreatic cyst.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Pancreatic Cystic Lesion (PCL), run by Qilu Hospital of Shandong University at 1 site in China.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
