How to check stomach disease without gastroscopy

Gastroscopy is often used to diagnose gastropathy. If gastroscopy is not done, X-ray barium examination, CT examination, tumor markers and other methods can be used to diagnose gastropathy.

1. X-ray barium examination can be used to

diagnose peptic ulcer. For mass type, ulcer type and invasive advanced gastric cancer, CT examination can also be used to diagnose gastropathy.

2. CT examination

patients can scan the abdomen and pelvis in a large range to determine the tumor site, the relationship between tumor and surrounding organs, etc.

3. Tumor markers

patients can also observe CEA, CA19 -9, CA724, CA125 and other tumor markers through blood tests to help diagnose gastropathy.
