Primary carcinoid of the duodenum: detection and characterization by magnetic resonance imaging.
We report a rare case of a primary small bowel carcinoid in which high-resolution MRI was able to detect a 1-cm primary duodenal neoplasm. This case illustrates that breath-hold contrast-enhanced MRI is capable of evaluating disease of the small bowel.
