Abstract
Background: Pancreatic neoplasms have highly variable clinical presentation and severity. Computerized Tomography (CT) is the modality of choice for investigating pancreatic neoplasms. Objectives: The objective of our study was to study the CT findings of pancreatic neoplasms in a tertiary care centre. Materials and Methods: CT scan of 20 patients with pancreatic neoplasms were studied after scanning on Siemens Somatom Perspective (128 slice). Results: Majority of the patients i.e., 45% had imaging features of epithelial tumours (Adenocarcinoma). Cystic neoplasms and endocrine tumours were the next most common seen in 30% and 15% of patients respectively. Conclusion: From this study we can infer that pancreatic neoplasms show characteristic findings on CT study & it enables us to assess, grade and stage pancreatic neoplasms with a fair degree of reliability non-invasively. It also helps in designing a management plan for better patient care.
