Abstract
Radiology as a discipline is one which is dominated by images. Nowhere is this truer than imaging of the upper gastrointestinal tract, which was the first area to experience the correlation of images produced by indirect radiological techniques with those produced by direct endoscopic methods. Knowledge of the macroscopic appearances as shown either by endoscopy or from pathological specimens is the key to interpreting radiological images. The following chapter attempts to bring these facets together so that the reader is able to understand better the pathological base of the common and not so common conditions affecting the stomach and duodenum, and how these processes manifest themselves on radiological images.
