Gastric fields are elements of the thinnest relief of the mucous membrane, which are determined in transmitted light. We studied these elements by the image of gastric fields obtained when the light flux is directed from the side of serous membrane (reverse transillumination). Gastric fields were studied under different degrees of intragastric pressure created by air injection, on split and unfolded above the light source, as well as on the operating table.
