Summary

This study tested a new type of PET scan (FAPI) in 20 people with stomach or gastro-esophageal junction cancer to see if it can more accurately determine the cancer stage than standard scans. Participants received the FAPI scan alongside usual imaging before and after chemotherapy. The goal was to compare how well FAPI detects tumors and spread, which could help doctors plan more precise treatments.
