Gastrointestinal stromal tumors from A to Z

By Lynda Aoudia

GISTs are rare mesenchymal tumors. Positive diagnosis of these tumors is based on histological examination, coupled with immunohistochemistry. CT is the examination of choice for diagnosis, resectability assessment, post-operative surveillance and evaluation of response to treatment. MRI is the gold standard for the evaluation of rectal GISTs and liver metastases.The aim of this educational book is to provide a histopathological description, illustrate the different presentations and the main imaging features for the diagnosis and post-treatment follow-up of GISTs. The book also aims to discuss the main differential diagnoses and therapeutic options for these tumors.This book is intended for all practicing physicians.
