A member asked:
Is the completion of an eus by a general gastrenterologist the time to tell a person he/she has cancer when the biopsy results have not come out yet?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Experienced doctors can do that, but biopsy results gives definitive and histopathologic answer, which guides treatment.
