    Computerized tomography effectively documents insulinoma, outperforming conventional radiography. This advanced imaging method accurately localizes pancreatic tumors, improving diagnostic capabilities.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Oncology
    • Endocrinology

    Background:

    • Insulinoma, a rare neuroendocrine tumor, presents diagnostic challenges.
    • Conventional radiography has limitations in visualizing small pancreatic tumors.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of computerized tomography (CT) for insulinoma detection.
    • To compare the diagnostic value of CT with conventional radiography.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of four confirmed insulinoma cases.
    • Review of imaging data from computerized tomography and conventional radiography.

    Main Results:

    • Computerized tomography successfully localized insulinoma in all four cases.

  • CT demonstrated superior resolution and accuracy in tumor localization compared to conventional radiography.

    • Conclusions:

    • Computerized tomography is a valuable tool for the diagnosis and localization of insulinoma.
    • CT offers significant advantages over conventional radiography for pancreatic tumor imaging.
