Overview

Abdominal MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of Zollinger-Ellison syndrome caused by gastrinoma. Findings on abdominal MRI suggestive of Zollinger-Ellison syndrome include solitary lesion or multiple lesions.

MRI Findings in Zollinger-Ellison syndrome

Findings on abdominal MRI scan suggestive of Zollinger-Ellison syndrome caused by gastrinoma include:^[1]

Solitary mass
Multiple masses

MRI is considered the most sensitive technique for demonstrating liver and bone metastases in patients with neuroendocrine tumors and is recommended for monitoring the response to therapy.
