Combined with esophageal cancer examination, patients can detect the disease as early as possible

As a common disease, esophageal cancer can seriously endanger the patient's health and affect his life. If the patient does not undergo esophageal cancer examination as soon as possible, it may affect the patient's condition. Therefore, everyone should understand the examination methods of esophageal cancer so that they can cooperate with treatment as soon as possible. The following is an introduction to the examination items of esophageal cancer.

Tests for esophageal cancer include:

1. Esophageal exfoliative cytology examination: It is one of the examination methods for esophageal cancer. The exfoliative cytology examination method is relatively simple, causes less pain to patients, and has a low misdiagnosis rate. Patients with hypertension, esophageal varices, severe heart disease, and lung disease are contraindicated for this examination method.

2. Esophageal fiberoptic endoscopy: Fiberoptic esophagoscopy has been widely used in the diagnosis of esophageal cancer. Esophagoscopy can directly observe the size, shape and location of the tumor, providing a basis for treatment for clinicians. It can also perform biopsy or endoscopic examination at the lesion site, which improves the safety and accuracy of esophageal cancer examination to a certain extent, so as to better treat esophageal cancer. This type of esophageal cancer examination is relatively common.

3. X-ray barium meal examination: It is one of the important means to diagnose esophageal and cardia 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 esophageal cancer diagnosis. This is also an examination item for esophageal cancer.

The above is the examination for esophageal cancer. I hope everyone can understand it one by one. As long as you know the above examination methods for esophageal cancer, you can find the disease in time and receive effective treatment. So please refer to the examination methods for esophageal cancer. It will definitely be useful for the patient's condition. I wish all patients can fight the disease to the end.
