The potential and the limitations of these and other modalities for the diagnosis of pancreatic diseases are considered in this volume by a group of internationally recognized experts. Both common and rarer diseases are extensively illustrated. The latest technical developments in imaging modalities such as color duplex Doppler, volume CT scanning and MRI are thoroughly discussed. Furthermore, a basis for better understanding of the radiological features is provided by chapters on the embryology, histopathology and physiopathology of the pancreas. The state of the art information on pancreatic radiology presented here represents excellent source materialfor the continuing education of medical specialists in the field.
