title: Pancreatic disease: findings on state-of-the-art MR images.
abstract: Recent technical innovations have made MR imaging a useful technique for imaging the pancreas. The potential impact of MR imaging on the management and outcome of cases can be determined only by controlled prospective comparative studies; however, these cannot be performed adequately until the normal and abnormal appearances of the pancreas on state-of-the-art MR images are understood. This pictorial essay is presented to further this intermediate goal.
