Imaging examination: it mainly includes CT examination and MRI, and PET-CT can be used if necessary, which can detect the tumor more accurately and sensitively. 3. Endoscopy: including gastroscopy, enteroscopy, etc., which can visually find the tumor in the corresponding area, and endoscopic biopsy can also be done for pathology. It is recommended to ask the doctor’s opinion, choose the tumor screening program suitable for you, and have regular medical checkups for early detection of the disease.
