#1088 Functional Imaging Tests versus Computed Tomography Scan: Detection of New Metastases and Clinical Usefulness in Digestive Neuroendocrine Neoplasms Follow-Up

Introduction: Digestive Neuroendocrine Neoplasms (DNENs) express in 80% of cases somatostatin receptors (SSTRs) detected by functional imaging tests (FITs). FITs are needed at diagnosis to define therapy but their role in follow-up (FU) is unclear
