    No full text
    Imaging of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors can be broadly divided into anatomic and functional techniques. Anatomic imaging determines the local extent of the primary lesion, providing crucial information required for surgical planning. Functional imaging, not only determines the extent of metastatic disease spread, but also provides important information with regard to the biologic behavior of the tumor, allowing clinicians to decide on the most appropriate forms of treatment. We review the current literature on this subject, with emphasis on the strengths of each imaging modality

    No full text
    56 p.We empirically investigate the relation between corporate performance, leverage, and equity ownership. In our methodology, we separate samples of Singapore-listed firms (for the years 1989 and 1994) into the high-growth and the low-growth firms. The performances of these firms are then regressed against the firms' leverage, insider shareholdings, institutional shareholdings and block-shareholdings.BUSINES
