MRI for Advanced Gastric Cancer : Especially for Scirrhous Cancer of the Stomach

抄録

We conducted MRI examinations in 92 patients with advanced gastric cancer, and evaluated the clinical potential of MRI for diagnosis of scirrhous cancer of the stomach. The feature of scirrhous cancer of stomach by MRI are ; 1) thick-ened gastric wall, 2) shortening of T1 and T2 values ; and 3) clear contrast between the gastric mucosae and cancer areas found in the T1 and T2 weighted images (preservation of the mucosae). MRI for scirrhous cancer of the stomach is thought a useful image diagnosis as an adjunct method to gastric X-ray and gastric endoscopy.
