Abstract:
Endosonography has become a widely accepted diagnostic procedure in the staging of gastrointestinal tumors over the past 10 years. The question of whether endosonography is equally as effective in the diagnosis of regional lymph node metastases has not been conclusively answered. This article presents a brief review of in vitro studies of lymph node analysis in the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract.
