A member asked:
Spit blood in am. ctscan of chest with no findings. can you tell me if oesophageal cancer would have shown up on ct or is a barium swallow required?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: If large enough, an esophageal cancer would show up. It might miss tiny ones. I would get further testing if this were repetitive
