“…MCNs usually arise in pancreatic body/tail of middle‐aged women 47 and, as serous cystadenomas, never communicate with the pancreatic ductal system. The presence of internal vascularised septa/nodules and the absence of a clinical history of acute pancreatitis are fundamental in differentiating MCNs from pseudocysts 53 …”

Indication/purpose: To review contrast‐enhanced ultrasound features of the most common pancreatic tumours. Methods: Contrast‐enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) can provide distinctive features of pancreatic tumours that are reported in the present paper, providing radiologic‐pathological correlations and clarifying the main differential diagnosis. Conclusion: Contrast‐enhanced ultrasound plays a well‐established role in the evaluation of pancreatic tumours. When possible, CEUS should be always performed after the initial US diagnosis, in order to improve the accuracy of the first line examination.
