A member asked:
Healthy lady just had an eus and right after gastoenterologist said cancer. biopsy consult next week. will we know what stage cancer then? no cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Confirm with Biopsy: The final confirmation of cancer diagnosis requires biopsy report which can be obtained after 2-3 days of the procedure. Staging procedures range from EUS, CT scans or PET scans which take a few more days to arrange. You might be able to get them done sooner if you ask your doctor or his office. Good luck.
