Twenty-five years ago, when ultrasound was introduced as a diagnostic tool in medicine, its noninvasive character was considered to be a great advantage (Kratochwil et al. 1966) (Fig. 1). Even then it was apparent, however, that the examination of intrapelvic organs could be significantly improved by passing ultrasound transducers into natural body ...

Endosonography in the Assessment of Esophageal Stenosis

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America, 1998
EUS is an invaluable tool to delineate the cause of esophageal strictures. In primary esophageal carcinoma, EUS is the most accurate means for locoregional tumor staging. The addition of EUS FNA improves lymph node staging accuracy over EUS alone. EUS FNA can also play a role in diagnosing the cause of strictures associated with lymphadenopathy or ...
