Overview
Echocardiography can help in the diagnosis making of a lung mass. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) can successfully determine the extent of invasion of a lung mass into the great vessels. Endobronchial ultrasound can be used as the initial diagnostic and staging procedure.
Echocardiography/Ultrasound
Echocardiography
- Echocardiography can help in the diagnosis making of a lung mass.
- This is especially true in the case of an invasion of the sorrounding structures.[1]
- Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) can successfully determine the extent of invasion of a malignant lung mass into the great vessels.[1]
- It can also determine and confirm the presence of pericardial effusion in the setting of a lung mass.[2]
Ultrasound
- Endobronchial ultrasound can be used as the initial diagnostic and staging procedure.[3][4]
