“…Cross-sectional imaging (CT and MRI) are more sensitive techniques for diagnosing pancreatitis. 6 Therefore, the consistent lack of pancreatic abnormalities by imaging in our cohort further brings into question the diagnosis of pancreatitis in the IBD patients studied, although meeting other clinical diagnostic criteria (i.e. abdominal pain, and lipase > 3 x ULN).…”

This article reviews the imaging findings associated with acute pancreatitis and its complications on cross-sectional imaging and discusses the role of imaging in light of this revision.
“…44 Indeed, MR of the pancreas is useful as both a problemsolving tool and an initial imaging examination of choice. 45 MR imaging provides excellent visualization of the pancreatic parenchyma and the pancreatic duct, as well as the common bile duct, for offending stones.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
