Abstract:
Objective To summarize the principle and application of functional MR imaging of pancreatic carcinoma and chronic mass-forming type pancreatitis.Methods Articles about diffusion-weighted imaging(DWI),magnetic resonance spectrum imaging(MRSI) and dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging of pancreatic carcinoma and chronic pancreatitis were reviewed and analyzed.Results Functional MR imaging could reflected the differences in molecules diffusion,metabolism and tissue perfusion between pancreatic carcinoma and chronic pancreatitis.Conclusion As a non-invasive protocol,functional MR imaging can provide useful information in differential diagnosis between chronic mass-forming type pancreatitis and pancreatic carcinoma.
