If you had carsanoid tumors would they show up on ct with contrast? and what are symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Most commonly are tumors from the gastrointestinal tract. Stomach, small intestine, appendix, colon. Can occur in the lungs too. Most of the times are asymptomatic until they are advance and cause carcinoid syndrome(tachycardia, flushing, tremors, high blood pressure, sweating episodes, diarrhea) commonly metastasize to the liver. Ct scan will help in the diagnosis.
