Results The characteristic signs of pancreatic cancer includes: no enhancement of pancreas mass;pancreas atrophy inferior mass;enlargement of venous arch of pancreas caput and superior mesenteric artery;obscure retropancreas space and distance increasing between inferior choledochus duct and proximal pancreatic duct.
