The significance of transverse folds in the gastric antrum

S E Evans et al. Clin Radiol. 1990 Dec.

Abstract

Multiple fine transverse folds in the gastric antrum were found in three patients on double contrast barium meal. These folds were constant. Endoscopy and histology demonstrated gastritis in all patients. We suggest that this appearance is a radiological indicator of gastric inflammation.
