Research

Mayo Clinic doctors and scientists participate in an extensive research program related to esophageal cancer. Focuses of esophageal cancer research include:

Improving current diagnostic and treatment options
Developing alternative postoperative management systems that decrease complications and length of hospital stays
Testing new ways to use drugs known to be effective against esophageal cancer and investigating the best combinations of chemotherapy and radiation therapy
