Abstract Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours are the
tumours developed at the expense of pancreas and require
a specific diagnostic assessment. The imaging assessment
of a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumour is useful for diagnosis as well as for surgical/medical treatment. Recently, a
number of advances have been made in the field of imaging
pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours, in particular in functional imaging using radiolabelled somatostatin analogues. In
this review, we approach diagnostic progress by focusing on
the advances of recent years. Thus, the interest of conventional imaging (scanner, abdominal ultrasound, and magnetic
resonance imaging), ultrasound endoscopy and the place of
functional imaging mainly with radiolabelled… More >
