Role of Intraoperative Ultrasound in Gastrointestinal (GI) Malignancies
- Conditions
- UltrasonographyGastrointestinal DiseaseMalignancy
- Registration Number
- NCT01143922
- Lead Sponsor
- All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi
- Brief Summary
Currently available investigating modalities like CT scans, MRI etc although have a high accuracy in staging of gastrointestinal(GI) tract malignancies, are not correct in all cases . The aim of this study is to assess the role of intraoperative ultrasound as a modality to increase the staging accuracy of GI tract malignancies
