“…Cinematic rendering is a three-dimensional display technique that uses a complex global lighting model to provide realistic images. 29 Cinematic rendering has multiple applications in the abdomen 30 and may serve as an important adjunct to standard CT images in the evaluation of gastric and small bowel masses (Figure 4). 29 Cinematic rendering helps demonstrate the submucosal location of GIST, the intramural depth, and its relationship to overlying mucosa, serosa and vessels, which has potential for further surgical or endoscopic treatment planning.…”

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are defined as mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract that express positivity for CD117, which is a c- KIT proto-oncogene antigen. Expression of the c- KIT protein, a tyrosine kinase growth factor receptor, allows the distinction between GISTs and other mesenchymal tumors such as leiomyoma, leiomyosarcoma, schwannoma and neurofibroma. GISTs can develop anywhere in the gastrointestinal tract, as well as in the mesentery and omentum. Over the years, the management of GISTs has improved due to a better knowledge of their behaviors and risk or recurrence, the identification of specific mutations and the use of targeted therapies. This has resulted in a better prognosis for patients with GISTs. In parallel, imaging of GISTs has been revolutionized by tremendous progress in the field of detection, characterization, survival prediction and monitoring during therapy. Recently, a particular attention has been given to radiomics for the characterization of GISTs using analysis of quantitative imaging features. In addition, radiomics has currently many applications that are developed in conjunction with artificial intelligence with the aim of better characterizing GISTs and providing a more precise assessment of tumor burden. This article sums up recent advances in computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of GISTs in the field of image/data acquisition, tumor detection, tumor characterization, treatment response evaluation, and preoperative planning.

“…[13][14][15]18 To date, CR has been applied to a variety of abdominal conditions including, but not exhaustively, pancreatic, gastric, colonic, hepatic, and splenic diseases. [18][19][20][21][22] However, the application of CR to GISTs has received little attention to date. 23 This purpose of this article was to discuss and illustrate the application of CR in the field of GISTs and the unique benefit of using CR in the workup of those tumours with a specific emphasis on tumours characterization and preoperative planning.…”
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are defined as CD117-positive primary, spindled or epithelioid, mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract, omentum, or mesentery. While computed tomography (CT) is the recommended imaging modality for GISTs, overlap in imaging features between GISTs and other gastrointestinal tumors often make radiological diagnosis and subsequent selection of the optimal therapeutic approach challenging. Cinematic rendering is a novel CT post-processing technique that generates highly photorealistic anatomic images based on a unique lighting model. The global lighting model produces high degrees of surface detail and shadowing effects that generate depth in the final three-dimensional display. Early studies have shown that cinematic rendering produces high-quality images with enhanced detail by comparison with other three-dimensional visualization techniques. Cinematic rendering shows promise in improving the visualization of enhancement patterns and internal architecture of abdominal lesions, local tumor extension, and global disease burden, which may be helpful for lesion characterization and pretreatment planning. This article discusses and illustrates the application of cinematic rendering in the evaluation of GISTs and the unique benefit of using cinematic rendering in the workup of GIST with a specific emphasis on tumor characterization and preoperative planning.
“…In addition, cinematic rendering effectively displays the relationship between tumour and the surrounding anatomy, and can assist in operative planning. 4 Barat et al also address, in detail, the potential advances in risk stratification, survival prediction, and response to therapy that can be achieved by detailed analysis of the imaging data with radiomics, texture analysis, and additional postprocessing tools now available to radiologists. As we speak about artificial intelligence it becomes clear that support from these systems that can expeditiously analyze large volumes of information, including recent advances in technologies like ChatGPT, shows how quickly our world is changing.…”
