Abstract:
Endoscopic ultrasonography has been widely used in the diagnosis of digestive system disease,and has great important diagnostic significance in the differential diagnosis of the upper gastrointestinal mucosa or submucosal lesions,as well as to distinguish the gastrointestinal intracavitary and extracavitary lesions.At the same time,EUS can more accurately judge the depth of tumor invasion and the surrounding lymph node metastasis,which has great value in the preoperative TNM staging of esophageal cancer and gastriccancer,the judgment of resectability and the prognosis.We summarized the result of EUS in the upper gastrointestinal disease in our hospital.
