CT gastric antrum wall thickening how much diagnosis for gastric cancer

CT gastric antrum wall thickening is not necessarily caused by gastric cancer. Under the influence of CT, the normal thickness of gastric antrum wall should be more than 5 mm, and can be as thick as 12 mm. However, if it is not accompanied by other stomach discomfort, it may be a normal manifestation. It is mainly due to the concentration of gastric mucosa caused by gastric peristalsis during CT examination. In addition, gastric antrum ulcer, gastric antrum inflammation and other diseases may lead to gastric antrum wall thickening. If it is suspected of gastric cancer, it is necessary to take tissue for pathological examination several times through gastroscopy, so as to make a definite diagnosis.
