The last two decades have seen the emergence of significant evidence that has altered certain aspects of the management of acute pancreatitis. While most cases of acute pancreatitis are mild, the challenge remains in managing the severe cases and the complications associated with acute pancreatitis. Gallstones are still the most common cause with epidemiological trends indicating a rising incidence. The surgical management of acute gallstone pancreatitis has evolved. In this article, we revisit and review the methods in diagnosing acute pancreatitis. We present the evidence for the supportive management of the condition, and then discuss the management of acute gallstone pancreatitis. Based on the evidence, our local institutional pathways, and clinical experience, we have produced an outline to guide clinicians in the management of acute gallstone pancreatitis.

Thyroid cancer is a unique malignancy arising from the endocrine system, and its nature is different from more common squamous cell carcinoma in the head and neck region. Multiple imaging modalities are used for imaging work up for thyroid cancer, including nuclear medicine imaging, ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Imaging findings of benign and malignant thyroid lesions overlap substantially, and differentiation may be difficult. The role of MRI is to evaluate the extent of disease and to assess the spread of nodal disease. In this chapter, we will discuss the role of MRI in thyroid cancer staging and key imaging appearance that affect staging of thyroid cancer.
