Abstrakt: Abstract: Neuroendocrine neoplasms have shown a linear increase in incidence and prevalence in recent decades, primarily due to improved cross-sectional imaging, expanded use of endoscopic procedures, and advanced genetic analysis. However, diagnosis of hereditary neuroendocrine tumors is still challenging because of heterogeneity in their presentation, the variety of tumor locations, and multiple associated syndromes. Radiologists should be familiar with the spectrum of these tumors and associated hereditary syndromes. Furthermore, as the assessment of multiple tumor elements such as morphology, biochemical markers, and presence of metastatic disease are essential for the treatment plan, conventional anatomic and functional imaging methods are fundamental in managing and surveilling these cases. Our article illustrates the role of different cross-sectional imaging modalities in diagnosing and managing various hereditary abdominopelvic neuroendocrine tumors.
