Core Tip |
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) often occur as a result of activating mutations in two receptor protein tyrosine kinases: KIT and/or platelet-derived growth factor receptor-α, allowing for effective molecular targeted therapies for these patients. Mutational analyses help predict patient prognosis and treatment response. Imaging plays a critical role in the diagnosis and management of GISTs. Multiphasic computed tomography serves as the imaging modality of choice in their diagnosis and follow-up. It is crucial to understand and identify the key imaging features of GISTs and their expected appearance with treatment response and disease recurrence. |
