INFO/WWW-LINKS:
The onset of difficultiy in swallowing (progressing from solid to liquid bolus)
rises the suspicion of esophageal
cancer. Two-thirds of all patients with esophageal cancer are male. These
tumors are predominantly squamous cell carcinomas - except at the lower end
of the esophagus (adenocarcinoma).
A typical sign for hemangioma
of the liver is the delayed uptake of contrast-agent into the lesion, which
slowly fills from the border to the centre during minutes

It is not
easy to find an exactly corresponding slice to every pathological example!
For that reason the
FILM

recommended!
Once opened you may use it for every pathological example.
