Overall Comment
Most gastric neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are associated with chronic atrophic gastritis and can be identified through high-definition white light endoscopy. NETs typically appear as small round “hills” in a flat landscape (Paris Is or Is+IIc). The mucosa on the surface tends to be thin for larger lesions, and the tumor presents as a subepithelial mass with a yellowish hue. Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) and TXI can be used for easier recognition of gastric NETs.
