CLINICAL/METHODICAL ISSUE: Neuroendocrine tumors (NET) represent a heterogeneous group of rare tumors that predominantly arise in the gastrointestinal tract. At the time of initial diagnosis, the NET has already spread locoregionally in about half of the patients, and 27% of patients have already developed distant metastases. Since this plays a crucial role in therapy planning, accurate diagnostic imaging is important.
STANDARD RADIOLOGICAL METHODS: Due to its high temporal and spatial resolution (multiphasic including arterial phase), computed tomography (CT) plays a decisive role in primary staging and follow-up care, while magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with its excellent soft tissue contrast offers advantages in the assessment of parenchymal organs in the upper abdomen.
METHODICAL INNOVATIONS: Somatostatin receptor (SSR) positron emission tomography (PET) provides additional functional information that not only helps to detect the primary tumor and distant metastases, but also has a significant influence on therapeutic management in a theranostic approach.
PERFORMANCE: Hybrid imaging using SSR-PET/CT has proven to be particularly effective in the detection of NET. Compared to conventional imaging, it provides additional information in 68% of patients, which has a significant impact on clinical management.
ACHIEVEMENTS: Imaging of NET requires the combined use of various methods such as ultrasound, CT, MRI, and PET/CT to enable accurate diagnosis and effective treatment planning.
PRACTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS: SSR-PET/CT is a valuable tool for the accurate staging of neuroendocrine tumors of the gastrointestinal tract, especially with small metastases, while MRI with hepatocyte-specific contrast agent and diffusion-weighted imaging is useful for the specific assessment of liver metastases.
