Core Tip
Core tip: Current knowledge regarding the imaging of primary gastric plasmacytoma is limited. Here, we report findings from biphasic enhancement computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and endosonography for this disease, thereby increasing imaging knowledge about primary gastric plasmacytoma and providing useful information for differentiating these tumors from common gastric tumors.
