#2903
Introduction: The incidence of BM in NET is underestimated and there is no consensus on clinical features, diagnostic techniques, and treatment options.
Aim(s): To assess the role of 68Ga-PET, 18FDG-PET, and CT-scan for the detection and characterization of BM.
Materials and methods: Retrospective analysis of consecutive patients (pts) with BM either at the initial diagnosis or during follow-up.
