The diagnosis of cancer in the inaccessible regions of the
gastrointestinal tract is difficult at best. Neoplasia frequently
advances insidiously and largely without the patient's knowledge.
Ideally, simple survey tests applied periodically to those segments
of the population considered most susceptible should be available.
For all practical purposes such means of diagnosis are nonexistent.
Those who specialize in gastro intestinal cancer must, therefore,
do the best they can. The best consists of many means, all good in
themselves, but often subject to failure or misinterpretation of
results. Any aid which will give even a small amount of positive
information to tip the balance for or against the diagnosis of
cancer in an obscure situation must be considered of value to the
gastroenterologist. The material presented in this volume
represents our experience with such an aid over the past eight
years. The use of radioactive phosphorus (P3l ) and a miniature
Geiger counter to record the differences in beta emission over
tumors as compared to normal tissue now appears clinically useful
in the diagnosis of gastrointestinal malignancy where the organ is
available for such instrumentation. An attempt has been made to
present the findings as objectively and as specifically as possible
so as to provide maximum assistance to other gastrointestinal
oncologists as well as others who have only a general interest in
the subject."
