Abstract

BACKGROUND: Size, ulcer, differentiation, and location are known to be factors affecting the T stage accuracy of EUS in gastric cancer. However, whether an interaction exists among recognized variables is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to identify the combinatorial characteristics of group with high overestimation rate to determine which group should be considered carefully for EUS-based treatment plans.
