Dr. Hiep Le answered

Specializes in Nephrology and Dialysis

Abdominal ultrasound is not a valuable study method for stomach lesion. For gastric lesion, upper endoscopy (EGD) is the best because the lesion can be visualized and biopsied. You are relatively young for stomach cancer but if the supra-clavicular lump is indeed an enlarged lymph node, both EGD and lymph node biopsy should be done.
