Overview
Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is the most reliable diagnostic technique for evaluation of the depth of invasion of primary gastric cancers. Endoscopic ultrasonography is not the procedure of choice for detecting nodal spread.
Stomach cancer echocardiography or ultrasound
- Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is the most reliable diagnostic technique for evaluating the depth of invasion of primary gastric cancers, although newer CT techniques and MRI may achieve similar results in terms of diagnostic accuracy.[1]
- For ealry gastric cancers, the sensitivity and specificity rates were 85 and 90 percent, respectively.[2]
- For metastatic involvement of lymph nodes, the sensitivity rates are 83 percent and specificity rates are 67 percent.
- Endoscopic ultrasonography is not the procedure of choice for detecting lymph nodes.[3]
