Grading system for GEP-NENs (adapted from 19)

Ki-67 index (%)a Mitotic count/10 HPFb
NET G1 ≤2 <2
NET G2 3–20 2–20
NEC G3 >20 >20

aAssessed by MIB-1 labeling in at least 2,000 tumor cells in high nuclear density (“hot spot”) areas

b10 HPF = 2 mm2, at least 50 optical fields in high-density mitotic areas
