The percentage changes of ADC after neoadjuvant chemotherapy of gastric carcinoma have correlation with long-term prognosis. The significantly increased ADC after chemotherapy is more prone to signify long-term survival, and has potential to be a surrogate imaging biomarker for the prediction of the prognosis. ADCentire for the whole lesion is better than ADCmin for high signal area in the prognosis prediction.
