The therapeutic ability of endoscopic ultrasound has expanded, especially in assisting with radiation planning for image guided radiation techniques such as stereotactic body radiation therapy. Endoscopic ultrasound enables precise placement of fiducial markers into pancreatic cancers to accurately delineate the position of the target lesion as it moves with respiration. The authors summarize the data presented at the 2011 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium, including Abstracts #302, #327, #176, #182, and #349.
内镜超声的治疗能力已得到扩展,尤其是在为图像引导放射技术(如立体定向体部放射治疗)的放射治疗计划提供协助方面。内镜超声能够将基准标记精确放置到胰腺癌中,以在目标病变随呼吸移动时准确描绘其位置。作者总结了在2011年美国临床肿瘤学会(ASCO)胃肠道癌症研讨会上展示的数据,包括摘要#302、#327、#176、#182和#349。
