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.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at images from two types of scans (a PET/CT and an MRI) taken of people with stomach cancer. It aims to see how well these scans work together to show the cancer, which could guide better treatment planning.
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 looks at CT scans and clinical information from people with stomach cancer to see if they can help predict how the disease will progress. It may help doctors better understand each patient's situation.
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, called dual-energy CT, can better show tumors and nearby healthy organs during radiation planning. If it works, it could help doctors target radiation more precisely and reduce side effects.
