Overview
Abdominal MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of Zollinger-Ellison syndrome caused by gastrinoma. Findings on abdominal MRI suggestive of Zollinger-Ellison syndrome include solitary lesion or multiple lesions.
MRI Findings in Zollinger-Ellison syndrome
- Findings on abdominal MRI scan suggestive of Zollinger-Ellison syndrome caused by gastrinoma include:[1]
- Solitary mass
- Multiple masses
- MRI is considered the most sensitive technique for demonstrating liver and bone metastases in patients with neuroendocrine tumors and is recommended for monitoring the response to therapy.
