Abstract

IMPORTANCE: Occult peritoneal metastasis frequently occurs in patients with advanced gastric cancer and is poorly diagnosed with currently available tools. Because the presence of peritoneal metastasis precludes the possibility of curative surgery, there is an unmet need for a noninvasive approach to reliably identify patients with occult peritoneal metastasis.
