Association between CT imaging features and KIT mutations in small intestinal gastrointestinal stromal tumors

Abstract excerpt

Small intestinal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) have different clinical outcomes when KIT mutations are in exons 11 or 9, which are also the most common sites of neoplastic KIT mutations. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the CT imaging features in those two groups.
