Ductectatic mucinous cystic neoplasms of the pancreas: evaluation with MR cholangiopancreatography.

OBJECTIVE: We performed this study to describe the advantages of MR cholangiopancreatography and its findings in revealing ductectatic mucinous cystic neoplasms of the pancreas. CONCLUSION: MR cholangiopancreatography using both projection and source images can reveal characteristic findings of a ductectatic mucinous cystic lesion of the pancreas and show the presence of the communicating duct between the cystic lesion and the main pancreatic duct.
