Abstract:
Objective To assess the value of magnetic resonance imaging for acute pancreatitis.Methods 77 patients of acute pancreatitis were examined with holding breath MRI sequence.Transverse scan:2D Flash T 1WI/T 1W+FS,TSE T 2WI+FS or HASTE+FS,Trufisp.Coronals scan:2D Flash T 1W+FS.MRCP was used in 34 patients.2D Flash dynamic contrast enhanced were used in 77 patients.Results 59 cases of acute edematous pancreatitis showed swelling and low signal intensity on T 1WI and higher signal intensity on T 2WI.Excepted the above findings,18 cases of hemorrhagic necrosis pancreatitis alos showed the higher signal intensity on T 1WI and peripancreatic exudative hydrops.Conclusion MRI is a reliable method for demonstrating acute pancreatitis.
