摘要
Gastrointestinal carcinoid tumours are notoriously difficult to diagnose in the absence of the carcinoid syndrome. The clinical presentation is typically non-specific, and patients often go undiagnosed for years. Recent advances in computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance (MR), endoscopic ultrasound, and nuclear scintigraphy have combined to improve the diagnosis and staging of this fascinating tumour. In this chapter the applications of cross-sectional imaging in patients with gastrointestinal carcinoid tumours is presented.
