MRI and special CT scans to study stomach cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial studies how two types of scans—multi-parameter MRI and special CT (dual-energy CT)—look in people with confirmed stomach cancer before surgery. It may help doctors better understand the cancer and improve planning based on scan features.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have stomach cancer confirmed by a biopsy done during an endoscopy.
- You have not started any treatment yet (no previous therapy).
- You are getting the scans before surgery, and your doctors can do MRI and CT.
- You can safely have contrast dye if needed (no severe allergy to contrast).
- Your scan images are clear enough for review (not blocked by scan “artifacts”).
- You are able to sign the consent form.

This trial looks at two types of scans—18F-FAPI PET/CT and MRI—to see how they compare for people with suspected or diagnosed gastric cancer. The goal is to learn which scan gives better information to help guide care.
This trial uses three different MRI scanning sequences to see which best helps stage (determine the spread of) stomach cancer. The goal is to improve how doctors plan treatment for gastric cancer.
This study uses a special type of ct scan (energy ct) to help doctors see stomach cancer more clearly. If you have been diagnosed with stomach cancer and are scheduled for surgery, this imaging test may help guide your treatment.
This trial uses two types of PET/CT scans (FDG and FAPI) to see how well chemotherapy or other treatments work before surgery for stomach cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen. The goal is to find the best way to measure treatment response and help guide your care.
This study tests whether a special type of CT scan (dual-energy CT) can better outline tumors and nearby healthy organs for radiation therapy planning. The goal is to make radiation more precise and reduce side effects.
This study uses information from CT scans done before stomach cancer surgery to see if it can predict whether the cancer may come back early. Researchers want to find patterns in the scans that might help doctors plan better follow-up care.
