Purpose: To determine the prevalence and imaging features of bone metastases in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs).
Materials And Methods: The medical records of 190 patients with pathologically proven GISTs were reviewed, and patients with bone metastases were identified. Computed tomography (CT) scans of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis were examined for features of bone metastases, and findings were correlated with the results of positron-emission tomography (PET) and histopathology.
