Abstract
This study aimed to investigate whether magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features could differentiate non-hypervascular pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs). In this study, 131 patients with surgically and pathologically proven non-hypervascular PNETs (n = 44) or PDACs (n = 87) were enrolled. Two radiologists independently analyzed MRI imaging findings and clinical features. Relevant features in differentiating non-hypervascular PNETs from PDACs were identified via univariate and multivariate logistic regression models. The MRI feature-based nomogram was constructed based on multivariable logistic analysis and the reliability of the constructed nomogram was further validated. The results showed that tumor margin (P = 0.012; OR: 6.622; 95% CI: 1.510, 29.028), MPD dilation (P = 0.047; OR: 4.309; 95% CI: 1.019, 18.227), and signal in the portal phase (P < 0.001; OR: 53.486; 95% CI: 10.690, 267.618) were independent discriminative MRI features between non-hypervascular PNETs and PDACs. The discriminative performance of the developed nomogram was optimized compared with single imaging features. The calibration curve, C-index, and DCA validated the superior practicality and usefulness of the MRI-based nomogram. In conclusion, the radiologically discriminative model integrating various MRI features could be preoperatively and easily utilized to differentiate non-hypervascular PNETs from PDACs.

Abstract
Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (panNENs) are heterogeneous neoplasms with neuroendocrine differentiation that show characteristic clinical, histomorphologic, and prognostic features; genetic alterations; and biologic behavior. Up to 10% of panNENs develop in patients with syndromes that predispose them to cancer, such as multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1, von Hippel-Lindau disease, tuberous sclerosis complex, neurofibromatosis type 1, and glucagon cell adenomatosis. PanNENs are classified as either functioning tumors, which manifest early because of clinical symptoms related to increased hormone production, or nonfunctioning tumors, which often manifest late because of mass effect. PanNENs are histopathologically classified as well-differentiated pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (panNETs) or poorly differentiated pancreatic neuroendocrine carcinomas (panNECs) according to the 2010 World Health Organization (WHO) classification system. Recent advances in cytogenetics and molecular biology have shown substantial heterogeneity in panNECs, and a new tumor subtype, well-differentiated, high-grade panNET, has been introduced. High-grade panNETs and panNECs are two distinct entities with different pathogenesis, clinical features, imaging findings, treatment options, and prognoses. The 2017 WHO classification system and the eighth edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer staging system include substantial changes. Multidetector CT, MRI, and endoscopic US help in anatomic localization of the primary tumor, local-regional spread, and metastases. Somatostatin receptor scintigraphy and fluorine 18-fluorodeoxyglucose PET/CT are helpful for functional and metabolic assessment. Knowledge of recent updates in the pathogenesis, classification, and staging of panNENs and familiarity with their imaging findings allow optimal patient treatment. ©RSNA, 2020.
