Abstract :
Pancreas is an important organ of the body but still a difficult organ to evaluate by both clinical and routine radiological methods. Pancreatic masses have propensity for producing high morbidity and mortality. They are insidious in their presentation on most occasions. Modalities for imaging of pancreas include Plain X-Ray, Barium Study, Ultrasonography, Endoscopic Ultrasound, Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangio Pancreatography, Contrast Enhanced Multidetector Computed Tomography, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Optical Coherence Tomography & Positron Emission Technology. Here, we discuss the role of MDCT in detecting various pancreatic mass lesions & to characterize various MDCT features in diagnosing pancreatic mass lesions. Also discuss about how MDCT facilitate early detection of small pancreatic lesions and likely to impact the treatment of pancreatic tumors, especially pancreatic adenocarcinoma. And also discuss about provision of preoperative diagnosis and staging of the pancreatic mass lesions and help in treatment planning and follow-up in patients with pancreatic tumours with the help of MDCT
