Comparison between multislice CT and MR imaging in the diagnostic evaluation of patients with pancreatic masses

Abstract: MRI represents a valid diagnostic alternative to CT in the evaluation of patients with pancreatic masses, both for correct identification and characterisation of primary lesions and to establish resectability in the case of malignancies. New high-field MRI equipment allows optimal imaging quality with good contrast resolution in evaluating the upper abdomen.

“…In this study, MDCTA was found to have a sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), and accuracy of 100%, 71%, 85%, 100%, and 89%, respectively, which was similar to the results reported by Fusari et al 26 and Zamboni et al 48 Results vary according to the various generations of MDCT scanners used.…”

“…17 The sensitivity of CT in the detection of pancreatic tumors has improved in recent times and lies between 75% and 100% in different series, with a specificity of 70%-100%. [22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29] However, the smaller the tumor is, the less the CT sensitivity. It is reported that CT sensitivity for lesions measuring #2 cm is between 68% and 77% 23,25 and the accuracy close to 77%.…”

“…Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) and angiography scans and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) along with magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) have been demonstrated to provide the highest accuracy in terms of non-invasive imaging modalities to diagnose, stage and determine the vascular involvement by pancreatic carcinomas of the head (>3 cm) [12][13][14][15], body and tail [16].…”
