Copyright policy )Role of computerized tomography in the staging of gastrointestinal neoplasms
AbstractGastrointestinal neoplasms are very common diseases, and the first challenge for clinicians is to define the extent of the tumor in order to plan the best treatment. The role of computerized tomography in assessing this kind of patient is well established worldwide. This article reviews the capabilities and the limits of this imaging technique in the staging of the tumors of the digestive tract (liver, gallbladder, biliary tract, pancreas, esophagus, stomach, small bowel, and colon).
