The purpose of this study is to develop a new treatment-support system combined endoscopy with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Endoluminal MR imaging using the surface coil closely placed to the gastrointestinal wall was able to visualize the differentiation of living porcine gastrointestinal wall layers with similar quality to EUS imaging. Additionally, it was possible to visualize the vascular structures in the submucosal layer. Endoluminal MR imaging would be useful not only for diagnosis of the gastrointestinal lesion but also for safely endoscopic treatment.
