Imaging characterization of paediatric tumours with the neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase fusion transcript
The neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase (NTRK) fusion transcript (FT) is a major genetic landmark of infantile fibrosarcoma (IFS) and cellular congenital mesoblastic nephroma (cCMN) but is also described in other tumours. The recent availability of NTRK-targeted drugs enhances the need for better...

Zusammenfassung: | The neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase (NTRK) fusion transcript (FT) is a major genetic landmark of infantile fibrosarcoma (IFS) and cellular congenital mesoblastic nephroma (cCMN) but is also described in other tumours. The recent availability of NTRK-targeted drugs enhances the need for better identification. We aimed to describe the anatomic locations and imaging features of tumours with NTRK-FT in children.
