Healing of grade-II and III oesophagitis through motility stimulation with cisapride.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:We aimed to compare the efficacy of endoscopic ultrasound elastography (EUS-EG) with that of magnifying chromoendoscopy (MCE) and endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) for the diagnosis of the depth of invasion in colorectal neoplasms. This is an important clinical issue as the depth of invasion is associated w...
