OBJECTIVE: Recent studies have provided a better understanding of the biologic behavior of gastrointestinal carcinoid tumors. This article focusing on imaging of gastrointestinal carcinoids will emphasize epidemiology, molecular biology, taxonomy, histopathology, and management. CONCLUSION: Gastrointestinal carcinoids are a biologically heterogeneous group of tumors, with variable clinical presentation and biologic behavior. Imaging can play an important role in multidisciplinary identification and management of this disease.
