This article discusses the importance of radiologic imaging in the diagnosis of neuroendocrine neoplasms, emphasizing the strengths and limitations of different imaging modalities.
Despite development of radiologic imaging, detection and follow-up of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) still pose a diagnostic challenge, due to the heterogeneity of NEN, their relatively long-term growth, and small size of primary tumor. A set of information obtained by using different radiological imaging tools simplifies a choice of the most appropriate treatment method. Moreover, radiological imaging plays an important role in the assessment of metastatic lesions, especially in the liver, as well as, tumor response to treatment. This article reviews the current, broadly in use imaging modalities which are applied to the diagnosis of GEP-NETs, (the most common type of NENs) and put emphasis on the strengths and limitations of each modality.
