OBJECTIVE: Small bowel tumours account for only 2-5 % of gastrointestinal neoplasms but are an important source of morbidity and mortality. This article presents the features demonstrated by a wide range of small bowel tumours across different imaging modalities. CONCLUSION: Early and accurate diagnosis via radiological means is an important factor in overall survival for malignant tumours and a thorough understanding of the common features is essential for all radiologists.
