Figure 1

Example of gastric intramucosal differentiated-type cancer. Whereas the index score for cyclin D1 expression is 16 in the gastric cancer mucosa (b), the score is 4 in its surrounding non-neoplastic mucosa (a). The tumor that is shown in figure 1b is regarded as well differentiated adenocarcinoma by Japanese pathologists, although this tumor is considered gastric adenoma or dysplasia by Western pathologists.
