Liver Tumor Burden in Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors: CT Features and Texture Analysis in the Prediction of Tumor Grade and <sup>18</sup>F-FDG Uptake

Liver Tumor Burden in Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors: CT Features and Texture Analysis in the Prediction of Tumor Grade and <sup>18</sup>F-FDG Uptake

Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (p-NETs) are a rare group of neoplasms that often present with liver metastases. Histological characteristics, metabolic behavior, and liver tumor burden (LTB) are important prognostic factors. In this study, the usefulness of texture analysis of liver metastases in...
