Analysis on Imaging Characteristics of Gastric Lipoma / 实用放射学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the imaging characteristics of gastric lipoma.Methods The clinical appearances and imaging characteristics such as size,margin,density or intensity,ulceration and so on of gastric lipomas in 13 cases were retrospectively analysed.Results 13 gastric lipomas were all solitary and intracavitary growth,origined from submucosal of every part of stomach.6 gastric lipomas showed submucosal filling defect and soft gastric wall,3 cases with ulcer presenting "bull eye sign" on barium meal.8 gastric lipomas on CT showed variable-size round or oval low-density masses with-50~-120 HU CT value.2 gastric lipomas on MRI were high intensity on T1/T2WI and low intensity on fat supression T2WI.Conclusion X-ray,CT and MRI are of respective value in diagnosing the gastric lipoma.
