Clinicopathological features and prognosis of developed gastric cancer based on the diagnosis of mucosal atrophy and enlarged folds of stomach by double-contrast upper gastrointestinal barium X-ray radiography.

Neither mucosal atrophy nor enlarged folds of stomach showed a significant association with clinicopathological features of developed gastric tumors. Appropriate follow-up of cancer screening by UGI-XR or UGI-ES can reduce the risk of gastric cancer-related death.
