Would a ct scan of the abdomin and pelvis
detect stomach cancer?

Your best bet would be to have an
endoscopy with biopsies. I was diagnosed
with stomach cancer when I was 24, im 26
now and still batteling it. That is how
they f9ound my stomach cancer.
Unfortunately, a ct scan or a pet scan
will only detect it if it already
progressed into a late stage.

Why did they do a test on your to detect
stomach cancer? Did you have weird pains
or something ? Or were you just sick all
the time?
