摘要: OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to illustrate the CT findings in patients with hepatic metastases from a gastrointestinal stromal tumor who were treated STI-571.CONCLUSION. Hepatic tumors that respond treatment STI-571 can appear as near-cystic components well-defined borders on contrast-enhanced CT. Most became smaller. These resemble simple cysts, but density measurements may differentiate them one another.
