Diagnosis

Ultrasonography: 80% accurate; part of the
initial assessment. Demonstrates polypoidal
mass without acoustic shadow with localized
thickening. Loss of GB/liver interface found in
advance cancer.
Limitation in diagnosis of involved nodes and
staging of the disease
􀂄 Endoscopic ultrasound improves diagnosis of
GB cancer and predicts depth of tumor.
Helpful for differential diagnosis of polypoid
lesions.
