Abstract:
The first prototype of an endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) was constructed in Japan in 1980. The evolution continued quickly and within the past ten years this method became available in routine practice. One of the most significant indications of EUS in esophagus are locoregional staging and posttherapeutic monitoring of the esophageal cancer. (Ref. 4.).
