Overview
On ultrasound, multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 is characterized by slow growing tumors and metastases.
Ultrasound
- Used for monitoring slow growing tumors and follow up of metastases.[1]
- Ultrasound can also be used to guide biopsies.
- Endoscopic or endoluminal US can be used to identify and differentiate gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors as well as obtaining samples for cytology or histology.
