The clinical value of endosonography (EUS) in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is currently increasing and supported by new imaging techniques. Conventional EUS combined with contrast application or elastography might further refine the diagnostic yield for GI cancers. The present review discusses current standards of EUS and endosonographically guided therapy and discusses newly available imaging modalities.
内镜超声检查(EUS)在胃肠道(GI)的临床价值目前正在增加,并得到了新成像技术的支持。传统的EUS结合造影剂应用或弹性成像可能会进一步提高GI癌症的诊断率。本综述讨论了EUS和内镜超声引导治疗的当前标准,并讨论了新出现的成像模式。
