Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
Abstract: The aim of the study is the correlation between risk factors and the pancreas carcinoma, and the imaging findings at patients with pancreatic carcinoma and analysis of advantages and disadvantages of MSCT and MRI. There are 97 patients included in this retrospective study that were diagnosed with the abovementioned disease in UCCK (University Clinical Center of Kosova). The imaging studies were done using ECHO Phillips, 6 and 64 MSCT Siemens and 1.5 T MR Symphony Siemens. To analyze the correlation of risk factors is used anamnesis.Out of a total of the 97 patients diagnosed with pancreas cancer, 76 cases resulted in head and neck 79.4 % (n=76), 20 cases resulted in body and tail cancers (21%), 1 cases resulted metastazis in pancreas by carcinoma in colon. Risk factors present in our study have koreluar with Diabetes Mellitus Type II 14:43%, 8.2% gastric ulcer, smoking 34.0%, 21.6% consuming alcohol. MSCT is the golden diagnostic standard regarding imaging of the pancreatic carcinoma, evaluation of its dependent vascular structures and staging of the disease. The MRI imaging modalities are able to clearly differentiate these lesions as well as biliary system, coeliac plexus and small intraductal carcinomas. Correlation risk factor of pancreatic carcinoma is closely related to according to numerous studies, in those who had more impact with risk factors, they are two times more likely in the appearance of pancreatic carcinoma. Keywords: Pancreatic cancer, MSCT, MRI, Morbidity, Mortality, Risk factor.
