Difference between Endoscopic ultrasound and Esophageal cancer

Endoscopic ultrasound vs. Esophageal cancer

Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) or echo-endoscopy is a medical procedure in which endoscopy (insertion of a probe into a hollow organ) is combined with ultrasound to obtain images of the internal organs in the chest, abdomen and colon. Esophageal cancer is cancer arising from the esophagus—the food pipe that runs between the throat and the stomach.

Similarities between Endoscopic ultrasound and Esophageal cancer

Endoscopic ultrasound and Esophageal cancer have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Esophagogastroduodenoscopy, Esophagus, Large intestine, Stomach, Stomach cancer, Thorax.

Esophagogastroduodenoscopy

Esophagogastroduodenoscopy, (EGD) also called by various other names, is a diagnostic endoscopic procedure that visualizes the upper part of the gastrointestinal tract down to the duodenum.
