| Core Tip |
Esophageal insufflation computed tomography (EICT) is a method of insufflating air into the stomach before computed tomography examination, which fully expands the esophageal lumen. The optimal monochromatic energy level clearly displays esophageal lesions and surrounding adipose infiltration by means of effectively improving the image quality and resolution. Our study demonstrates that EICT combined with GSI assist technology contributes to better performance in the differential diagnosis between the T1/2 vs T3 stages and the T3 vs T4 stages in medullary esophageal cancer. |
