Fig. 6A 78-year-old man with mucinous gastroesophageal junction
tumor. High-resolution T2-weighted image (A) shows
high-signal-intensity submucosa (arrowhead), interpreted as
submucosal edema by all three interpreters; however, corresponding histology
(B) reveals mucinous adenocarcinoma. On MRI, muscularis propria appears
thinned on right side because of invasion of tumor (arrow). This
misinterpretation accounted for four of seven images where MRI measurement
underestimated tumor thickness.
