    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) presents advantages over conventional imaging for gastrointestinal (GI) tract lesions.
    • EUS is valuable for staging esophageal and gastric cancers, evaluating chemotherapy efficacy, and diagnosing benign submucosal tumors.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the diagnostic utility of EUS in various GI conditions.
    • To compare EUS with conventional imaging procedures.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of EUS applications in diagnosing GI tract pathologies.
    • Clinical evaluation of EUS for intra- and extramural lesions.

    Main Results:

    • EUS effectively visualizes cancer invasion and lymph node spread in the esophagus.

  • EUS assesses gastric cancer invasion depth, evaluates laser therapy, and aids in diagnosing pancreatic and biliary tract diseases.
  • EUS improves differential diagnosis of submucosal tumors and elucidates giant gastric folds.

    • Conclusions:

    • Endoscopic ultrasonography is a valuable tool for diagnosing intra- and extramural GI lesions.
    • Further comparative studies with conventional imaging are recommended to establish EUS's definitive role.
