Can people with stomach problems have an MRI scan?

Patient's question:

Medical history has been 20 years, gastroscopy has been done for 10 years, confirmed with gastric antrumitis, 12 duodenal bulb ulcer. Can MRI be done?

Doctor's answer:

For magnetic resonance imaging, only large mass shadows can be seen, and small pathological changes cannot be observed, so it is not very meaningful. Endoscopy should be performed for a thorough examination. The interference caused by stomach disease to patients is very significant. Once symptoms are noticed, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. At the same time, pay more attention to self-care training, eat more vegetables and fruits, and consume some easily digestible liquid foods. Avoid spicy and irritating foods.
