The results of computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging in patients with histologically proved carcinoma of the esophagus or of the cardia were correlated with previously administered barium swallow X-ray studies and postoperative pathologic-anatomic findings. A good estimation of resectability is achieved combining barium swallow and CT studies, but an accurate determination of the stage of involvement of the surrounding tissue and of the nodes does not appear possible at present. In the routine staging of upper digestive tract malignancy MRI was found less accurate and cannot be recommended.
对经组织学证实为食管癌或贲门癌患者的计算机断层扫描和磁共振成像结果，与先前进行的钡餐X线检查及术后病理解剖结果进行了对比。结合钡餐和CT检查能对可切除性做出较好评估，但目前似乎无法准确判定周围组织及淋巴结的受累阶段。在对上消化道恶性肿瘤进行常规分期时，发现磁共振成像不够准确，因此不推荐使用。
