  • Title: The role of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) in planning radiotherapy target volumes for oesophageal cancer.
    Author: Thomas E, Crellin A, Harris K, Swift S, Montefiore DS.
    Journal: Radiother Oncol; 2004 Nov; 73(2):149-51. PubMed ID: 15542161.
    Abstract:
    Computed tomography (CT) scanning is the main imaging modality utilised for planning radical oesophageal radiotherapy. Endoscopic ultrasound allows accurate localisation and local staging of oesophageal tumours. A method of incorporating this information into the CT planning process is described. Gross tumour volume position changes that occur when using this technique are presented.
