Revision of the Manual for Abdominal Ultrasound in Cancer Screening and Health Checkups (2021)

Abstract

In April 2014, three medical societies-the Japanese Society of Ultrasonics in Medicine, the Japanese Society of Gastrointestinal Cancer Screening, and the Japanese Society of Ningen Dock-jointly published the Manual for Abdominal Ultrasound in Cancer Screening and Health Checkups. Based on the results of a questionnaire survey on revision of this manual and the annual report of Gastrointestinal Cancer Screening in Japan, this manual was revised and published on the website in June 2021. Here, we explain the revisions in the revised version of the Manual for Abdominal Ultrasound in Cancer Screening and Health Checkups (2021).
