Parietal thickening of the digestive tract

Suggestion: why not use medical terminology.

hollow organs: less accurate; ultrasound is often able to show parietal thickening or a mass attached to the digestive tract


Peer comment(s):

neutral Elisabeth Ghysels : because it's not the tract, that is thickened, but its wall; so better to be precise
