Reseña del editor:

This volume is a comprehensive guide to the use of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), spiral computed tomography (SCT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosis and staging of malignancies of the digestive tract. The book features contributions from leading international authorities in radiology, gastroenterology, surgery, and oncology and highlights the role of imaging studies in accurate staging and appropriate treatment planning. Major sections cover the esophagus; stomach and duodenum; small bowel; colon and rectum; liver; and pancreas and biliary tract. For each anatomic region, the book details the capabilities and limitations of EUS, SCT, and MRI in diagnosis and staging of various types of malignancies. An overview at the end of each section provides systematic perspectives on the various modalities and explains the influence of imaging findings on therapeutic decision-making. A section on biopsy covers endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration and image-guided percutaneous biopsy of abdominal masses
