Figure 4: Side-branch type IPMT. Coronal T2-weighted single shot echo trains spin echo (A) and axial post-gadolinium fat-suppressed T1-weighted gradient echo (B) images demonstrate mainly large cystic side branch lesion in the head of the pancreas (arrow).

Fig.: 4A-4B: Side-branch type IPMT. Coronal T2-weighted single shot echo trains spin echo (A) and axial post-gadolinium fat-suppressed T1-weighted gradient echo (B) images demonstrate mainly large cystic side branch lesion in the head of the pancreas (arrow).
Normal pancreas. T1-weighted fat-suppressed SGE (A), T1-weighted post-gadolinium hepatic arterial dominant phase, fat-suppressed 3D-GE (B) images depict normal pancreas (arrow).

Figure 1: Normal pancreas. T1-weighted fat-suppressed SGE (A), Figure 2: Pancreatic adenocarcinoma arising in the head. Figure 3: Functioning islet cell tumor. T1-weighted post-contrast fat-suppressed 3D GE image shows diffuse heterogeneous enhancement of the tumor.
