Journal ArticleDOI

Modern imaging methods versus clinical assessment in the evaluation of hospital in-patients with suspected pancreatic disease.

TL;DR: In a group of patients with a high suspicion of pancreatic disease, little additional sensitivity is provided by sophisticated imaging procedures such as EUS, ERCP, and CT, in comparison with clinical assessment including laboratory values and TUS, however, the specificity can be substantially improved.
Journal ArticleDOI

The 'angiogenic switch' in the progression from Barrett's metaplasia to esophageal adenocarcinoma.

TL;DR: The present study suggests, that an angiogenic switch might exist and that it is an early event in the metaplasia-dysPlasia-carcinoma sequence of Barrett's carcinoma, and that the neovascularisation phase in Barrett's cancer may precede tumour growth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Limited resection and free jejunal graft interposition for squamous cell carcinoma of the cervical oesophagus.

TL;DR: Outcome after limited resection and reconstruction with a free jejunal graft interposition was evaluated retrospectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

COX2 expression, angiogenesis, proliferation and survival in Barrett's cancer.

TL;DR: Elevated COX2 expression is associated with lymph-node metastases and reduced survival in Barrett's cancer, and appears to be related to the induction of angiogenesis and proliferation.
