A number of technologies can be used to visualize pancreatic masses, but we would like to emphasize the four most common- computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanning, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), positron emission tomography (PET), and magnetic resonance imagining (MRI). CT Scan (computerized axial tomography)
The diagnosis of acute pancreatitis is generally based on clinical and laboratory findings; however, CT is the imaging technique of choice for confirming the diagnosis and detecting complications [1]. In an audit of 2,068 patients who underwent CT examinations at a large tertiary care hospital, Naik et al. [2] found that acute pancreatitis and its complications were the most common indication for abdominal CT.
