Abstract
Background: Inflammation of the gastric mucosa is gastritis. It may be acute or chronic. It usually affects half of the world population. Acute gastritis is caused by medications, like, NSAID (Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) and Corticosteroids, viral infection, extreme stress, etc. Aim and Objectives: To assess/evaluate the role of transabdominal ultrasound as an imaging modality for the diagnosis of acute gastritis and to study patterns of involvement of various layers of the stomach wall. Materials and Methods: The thickness of the whole Stomach wall and individual layers were calculated in 20 normal individuals (Control) and 20 Patients of Gastritis, confirmed later on Endoscopy. Endoscopy was performed on the same or the next day after the Sonography.
