Pancreatic sparing of focal fatty infiltration

JE Jacobs, BG Coleman, PH Arger and JE Langer
Department of Radiology, University of Pennsylvania Medical Center, Philadelphia 19104.

PURPOSE: To describe typical findings of focal fatty sparing of the pancreas. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Computed tomography, ultrasonography, and/or magnetic resonance imaging were performed in seven patients. RESULTS: In these patients, the area of sparing of fatty change was within the head or uncinate process of the pancreas. CONCLUSION: Differentiating pancreatic fatty sparing from true neoplasm by means of cross-sectional imaging obviates the need for invasive diagnostic studies.
