Preliminary opinion on assessment categories of stomach ultrasound report and data system (Su-RADS).

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:Transabdominal ultrasound after oral administration of an echoic cellulose-based gastric ultrasound contrast agent (TUS-OCCA) has recently been suggested as a valuable mass-screening tool for gastric cancer. The aim of this study was to propose a producible stomach ultrasound reporting and data system (Su-RADS) using TUS-OCCA for gastric cancer screening. PATIENTS:The study includes information of 2738 patients who underwent both gastroscopy and TUS-OCCA examinations recorded in software system. Gastroscopy examination with pathological diagnosis was considered as gold standard. Various gastric lesions were classified into category 1-5 based on gastric wall thicknesses of them (especially the mucosa layer). RESULTS:The total malignant ratios of patients enrolled in this study wer
