Abstract:
The diagnostic capability of ultrasound in symptomatic gastric cancer is stressed, on the basis of a prospective study of 64 neoplastic and 19 non-neoplastic patients. Aspecific signs are described which suggest the presence of five layers within the gastric wall as an index of absence of disease. The prospective importance of ultrasound investigation in 5 neoplastic patients with aspecific symptoms is emphasized.
