Abstract:
:Echotomographic studies were performed in 163 patients with gastric cancer from 1984 to 1990. The technical aspects of the examination and the images obtained in different lesions are described. Emphasis is placed on local or diffuse wall infiltration, ulcerations, vegetations or stenotic lesions. Consideration of these aspects during routine echotomographic exploration of the abdomen may help improve to the detection of gastric cancer.
