How does esophagus cancer terminal examine

summary

My mother called and asked me to advise my grandfather to go to the hospital for physical examination. After asking, I learned that he often felt abdominal pain recently, and sometimes it was difficult to eat, so I suspected that he was suffering from esophageal cancer. Today, let me talk about how to check for advanced esophageal cancer.

How does esophagus cancer terminal examine

First: esophageal cancer examination method: esophageal motility test: a) esophageal pressure measurement, suitable for patients with suspected esophageal motility disorder; b) acid clearance test, used to determine the peristaltic efficiency of esophageal body to remove acid. 2) Gastroesophageal reflux measurement: a) esophageal acid perfusion test; b) 24-hour esophageal pH monitoring; c) lower esophageal sphincter manometry test. Sometimes there will be food retention, infection and foreign body sensation.

Second: X-ray barium meal examination: it is one of the important means for the diagnosis of esophageal and cardiac tumors. It can provide reliable data for the study of early esophageal cancer. Combined with cytology and esophageal endoscopy, it can improve the accuracy of the diagnosis of esophageal cancer. X-ray barium meal examination of esophageal cancer should not only determine the location, length and degree of obstruction of the lesion, but also determine whether the lesion has extravasation and the extent of extravasation. The combination of CT and X-ray is helpful to the diagnosis and staging of esophageal cancer.

Third: the method of exfoliative cytology of esophagus is simple, convenient, safe, less pain for patients, and the accuracy rate is more than 90%. It is an important method for large-scale screening of esophageal cancer. However, the cytological examination of esophageal net drawing should not be performed in patients with bleeding tendency or esophageal varices; the cytological examination of esophageal net drawing should be performed carefully in patients with deep esophageal ulcer, hypertension, heart disease and late pregnancy.
