Between March, 1980 and January, 1984, computerized tomography (CT) was performed on 110 patients with proven esophageal carcinoma. In 26 patients, information obtained preoperatively by CT was compared with results of intraoperative exploration or histologic examination of resection specimen. Correlation analysis showed that accuracy of CT in assessing actual tumor size and mediastinal or abdominal lymph node involvement is rather limited, while correct results were obtained in between 84 and 100 per cent of patients as far as identification of invasion of adjacent organs is concerned. We thus advocate routine use of CT in the process of preoperative assessment of operability and staging.
1980年3月至1984年1月期间，对110例已证实患有食管癌的患者进行了计算机断层扫描（CT）检查。在26例患者中，将术前通过CT获得的信息与术中探查结果或切除标本的组织学检查结果进行了比较。相关性分析表明，CT在评估实际肿瘤大小以及纵隔或腹部淋巴结受累情况方面的准确性相当有限，而在识别相邻器官侵犯方面，84%至100%的患者获得了正确结果。因此，我们主张在术前评估可切除性和分期过程中常规使用CT。
