AbstractDiagnostic imaging of jejuno-ileal neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) has been described as challenging. Follow-up requires the detection of metastatic spread as well as screening for local recurrence. Multimodal imaging concepts must often be applied.We report the case of a 45-year-old man with a history of ileal NET. At 2 points in follow-up of our patient, information provided by high-end ultrasound changed prognosis and treatment considerably: when positron emission tomography/computed tomography newly detected suspected hepatic metastases, contrast-enhanced ultrasound correctly identified the lesions as intrahepatic vascular shunts. Moreover, profound B-mode ultrasound solely detected ileal recurrence, leading to early removal of the tumor.
