Abstract:
Adenocarcinoma of the stomach represents upwards of 95% of all gastric malignancy. Calcifications in untreated gastric cancer are rare, but typically represent mucin-producing tumor. We report the radiology and pathology of a patient who presented with gastric wall calcifications on CT and a mucin-producing adenocarcinoma at pathologic examination of a gastric biopsy specimen.

Radionuclide Testing
Radionuclide testing is a sophisticated medical technique for assessing gastrointestinal motility. It focuses on gastric emptying and colonic transit time. Radioactive markers track the movement of food through the digestive system, providing insights into gastrointestinal disorders.
In gastric emptying studies, a meal's liquid and solid...
