Abstract
Аim.The incidence of cardioesophageal cancer has been steadily increasing over the past few decades, posing significant diagnostic challenges.
Materials and metods. X-ray examination remains the primary imaging modality for the initial diagnosis of gastric tumors. However, the modern imaging techniques, such as ultrasound (US) and spiral computed tomography (SCT) are needed to assess the extent of tumor invasion into the gastric wall and adjacent organs as well as lymph node involvement and metastatic spread.
Conclusion.The role of US and SCT in diagnostic imaging of cardioesophageal cancer was studied and the examination algorithm using US and SCT with conventional X-rays was offered.
