Journal Title: Indian journal of applied basic medical sciences - Year 2017, Vol 19, Issue 29
Abstract
OBJECTIVE :- To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy between USG & MRCP in the patients suspected of biliary and pancreatic Pathology. MATERIAL & METHODS : Sixty patients of all age groups and both sexes, attending the hospital, suspected of biliary and pancreatic pathology, were examined first by USG and followed by MRCP. The findings were co-related with ERCP and biopsy reports. RESULTS :- Out of 60 patients, 41 patients had biliary pathology and 19 patients had pancreatic pathology. Out of this, MRCP was 98 % accurate in diagnosis when results were compared in all cases. USG didn’t help in case of CBD stricture, in evaluating Pancreatic duct in case of Chronic pancreatitis and in lower end of CBD pathology. CONCLUSION :- USG is the cheap and easily available modality so, it is the primary investigative modality for suspected patients of biliary and pancreatic pathology, but MRCP has high diagnostic value.
