Are we reproducible in measurement of NET liver metastasis?

Accurate measurement of well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumours (NET) liver metastases is critical to determine tumour slope and to assess treatment efficacy.Our objectives were to determine which CT or MRI sequence is the most reproducible to measure NET liver metastases and to assess the percentage of variability of measurements.Intra and inter-observer variability were studied on triphasic abdominal CT or liver MRI in 22 and 32 NET patients respectively. Patients were treatment-na ïve or under somatostatin analogues.
