Résumé
Endocrine tumours constitute a network of tumours scattered in the body and characterized by several common features including their capacity to secrete hormones, their association as part of inherited syndrome and their ability to be explored by functioning imaging. We review main advances in the biological and morphological work-up of these rare tumours, including the role of chromogranine A measurement and somatostatin receptor scintigraphy.
