Overview
Findings on abdominal CT scan suggestive of glucagonoma include reinforced mass in the arterial phase of the enhanced CT scan.[1]
CT
- Findings on abdominal CT scan suggestive of glucagonoma include reinforced mass in the arterial phase of the enhanced CT scan.[1]
- CT scans confirm the location of the tumor and show the organs nearby. These are helpful for determining the stage of the cancer and in determining whether surgery is a good treatment option.
