Abstract:
Neuroendocrine neoplasms of the central nervous system and head and neck are rare and pose significant diagnostic challenges due to their varied clinical presentations and overlapping imaging appearances. This article reviews the latest nomenclature, multimodality imaging features, diagnostic approaches, and management considerations relevant to radiologists for the major neuroendocrine neoplasms affecting the pituitary gland, skull base, sinus, neck, and spine.

Description of the Procedures
Computed Tomography (CT) scan:
Computed Tomography (CT) scans use X-ray technology to generate detailed images of bones, organs, and tissues. During the scan, the patient lies on a moving table...
