title: [Analysis and differential diagnosis of gastric impressions (author's transl)].
abstract: Based on the vector principle conceived by Whalen pertaining to the spreading of intra abdominal space occupying lesions, the attempt was made to analyse impression effects of the gastric wall and to demonstrate their relevance for differential diagnosis. An examination technique (hypotensive double contrast technique), suitable for adequate assessment, applicable also to minor alterations, is being described.
