title: A new trial in endoscopic diagnosis for stomach cancer:intra-arterial dye (IAD) method.
abstract: Forty gastric cancers were examined by endoscopy before and after the injection of Evans blue or indigo carmine dye into the celiac artery. Seventeen of these lesions were also examined after injection of vasomotor drugs. The authors conclude that these techniques permitted more precise endoscopic deliniation of the size and extent of cancerous lesions, particularly those otherwise obscured by overlying, intact epithelium.
