Spectral CT scan to stage stomach cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study uses a special type of CT scan called spectral CT to see how far your stomach cancer has spread. The goal is to get a more accurate staging, which can help your doctor choose the best treatment for you.

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 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 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.
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 is testing whether a simple blood test can help find stomach cancer early, before symptoms appear. This could offer a less invasive way to detect the disease compared to a scope procedure.
