Clinical Staging of Gastric Cancer by Ultrasound, Computerized Tomography, and Magnetic Resonance Tomography

The diagnostic procedures usually employed in the primary diagnosis of malignant gastric disease—endoscopy and X-ray double-contrast examinations—only determine the endoluminary spread and hence only part of the primary tumor.
