Fig. 1

A 68-year-old woman with esophagogastric junction cancer was pathologically diagnosed using HR MRI as having stage T1b, Sierwert II. a The axial T2W image shows partial thickening of the cardia wall with a decreased signal (arrow). b The axial diffusion-weighted image with b = 800 s/mm2 shows restricted diffusion in the cardia. c The lesion was not clearly shown on the axial T1W image. d Axial and arterial phases of a contrast-enhanced image show significant enhancement of the lesion (arrow). e Persistent enhancement of the lesion was observed on the enhanced and venous phases of T1W images. f The lesion and mucosal tissue had similar degrees of enhancement on the delayed phase of the T1W image
