There is no doubtful lesion in the stomach which is suspicious of cancer. The erosive gastritis can be caused due to Helicobacter pylori infection and if positive will require a course of H-pylori kit for 14 days. There is no entity called CT radiation induced gastritis.
Next Steps
Speak to medical gastroenterologist and change your lifestyle to avoid risk factors for gastritis

It's not the reason for gastritis. Avoid spicy food. Probably your doctor will start anti H pylori treatment.
