To determine the sonographic differentiation of pancreatic appearance between diabetic and non-diabetic individuals of age 45-55years. A cross sectional comparative study was conducted at Gilani ultrasound clinic Lahore. Total 150 individuals of both diabetic and non-diabetic were included in this study to compare the sonographic appearance of pancreas in diabetic and non-diabetic individuals. Peoples from the age group of 45-55 years are only included in this study. According to the result Fatty pancreas was seen on ultrasound hyperechoic and the normal pancreas was hypoechoic. The size of the pancreas is slightly decreased in diabetic patients as compare to non-diabetic individuals. Glucose level in diabetic patients was more than normal individuals. The mean age group was 49.9133. Out of 75 patients 43 patient pancreas were seen hyperechoic. The mean of pancreatic head was 22.22mm, pancreatic body was 21.11mm and pancreatic tail was 21.87mm.
