A member asked:
Would stage 4 cancer show up on an abdominal ultra sound?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, inside abdomen: Ultrasound of the abdomen will frequently show any tumors inside the abdomen although the images are not always of the best quality. So it is a poor man's CT scan. CT scan of the abdomen is a better test but it costs more and also it exposes you to Radiation.
