Abstract:
Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms(pNENs)are a group of tumors that originate from stem cells and have neuroendocrine markers and are capable of producing biologically active amines and/or polypeptide hormones with significant heterogeneity.With advances in endoscopic and imaging techniques and improved diagnostic levels,the detection rate of the pNENs has increased.But at present,there is still easy to be misdiagnosed and missed because of insufficient understanding of the pNENs.Therefore,early diagnosis which by understanding the imaging features and using the effective imaging methods has great significance for improving prognosis.
