[Comparison of ultrasonic and clinico-functional indicators of the status of the pancreas in patients with chronic pancreatitis].
Upon examination of 85 patients with chronic recurrent pancreatitis there appeared a clear cut correlation between the ultrasonic findings and clinical, laboratory and intraoperative evidence indicative of chronic pancreatitis. It should be noted that ultrasonic amplitude histography was a pilot experience in relation to pancreatic investigation. Ultrasonic criteria as a whole were insufficiently informative for definite recognition of the disease phase (aggravation or remission of chronic pancreatitis), while the peak value of ultrasound amplitude histogram of the pancreas allowed differentiation of the severity (moderate or grave) of the excretory pancreatic insufficiency.
