Pancreatic adenocarcinoma: MDCT versus MRI in the detection and assessment of locoregional extension

Abstract

Purpose: To compare dynamic-contrast enhanced multirow detector computed tomography (MDCT) including multiplanar reformatted images (MPR) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) including magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography images for the detection and assessment of locoregional extension of pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
