title: [Improvement of ultrasonographic diagnosis of stomach cancer].
abstract: A method for abdominal ultrasonographic diagnosis of gastric cancer is suggested which includes evaluation of the gastric wall and regional lymph nodes, and search for distant metastases. Gastric tumors were visualized in 92.9% of cases. The procedure should be performed both in cancer suspects and cases with reliably established gastric neoplasm to assess local extent of tumor and detect regional and distant metastases.
