Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

One of the key echographic signs of focal pathology of the pancreas is the presence of formation contours and their nature. Endoscopic ultrasonography has a unique ability to visualize the echographic texture of the pancreatic parenchyma, and also allows you to assess in detail the boundaries and nature of the contours of the tumor formations of the organ due to the proximity of the ultrasound sensor. However, the differential diagnosis of focal pancreatic lesions remains a difficult clinical task due to the similarity of their echosemiotics. One of the ways to objectify and improve the accuracy of ultrasound data is the use of artificial intelligence methods for interpreting images. Improving the quality of differential diagnosis of focal pathology of the pancreas according to endoscopic ultrasonography based on the analysis of the nature of the contours of focal formations using fuzzy mathematical models.
