Pancreas is injured by a variety of insults. The response of pancreas to injury is more or less same. However damage to pancreas may lead to a predominant parenchymal injury or predominant ductal injury or a mix pattern. The majority of focus when a patient presents with pancreatitis is on SIRS and collections that develop as a result of pancreatits.This is important also as these can cause death of the patient.However the damage to pancreatic duct and subsequent complications require a multi-disciplinary approach for management. Often the diagnosis is delayed. This brief review presents the various modalities used for this diagnosis.
