Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value and clinical significance of preoperative staging in gastric cancer with induced pneumoperitoneum in spiral CT (SCTPP). Methods Both routine SCT and SCTPP were performed in 52 lean patients suffered from gastric cancers, and comparison was made between SCT findings and surgical and histopathologic findings. Results The accuracy of routine SCT and SCTPP in determining the T-staging was 72% and 96%, respectively (?2=8.0, P0.05). The sensitivity in determining M-staging was 61% and 100%, respectively (?2=0.04, P
