This method, which can be improved by using more sensitive sequences with a high-field-strength system, should be competitive with biopsy for the diagnosis of substantial liver iron overload.

Pseudoaneurysms and bleeding pseudocysts are rare but life-threatening complications of chronic pancreatitis. This report summarizes our experience in 8 cases collected from among 250 patients admitted for chronic pancreatitis. We describe the radiological findings of nine vascular lesions and especially emphasize the contribution of recent radiological imaging, ultrasound and computed tomography scanning in establishing the diagnosis of vascular complication. We also report a case of successful embolization of a splenic pseudoaneurysm that ruptured into the colon.
