Abstract
One of the most common chronic diseases in closely all states is Diabetes Mellitus. The world occurrence of diabetes amongst elderly (20-79) in 2010 was 6.4% distressing 285 million adult and all ages and probable to be increased to 7.7% distressing 439 million adult in 2030. In Pakistan Diabetes Mellitus (DM) the recent occurrence of type 2 diabetes mellitus is 11.77%. The prevalence is advanced between male than females, the occurrence of (DM) Diabetes Mellitus in urban areas are more common than rural areas. (DM) Diabetes Mellitus is a set of diseases categorized by great level of blood glucose causing from faults in insulin excretion, and its action or both. We compared the echogenicity of pancreas with the surrounding organ superior mesenteric artery (fat around (SMA). The size of the pancreas is slightly decreased as compare to the normal individuals. 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. In our study female were more than male. Highly echogenic pancreas is associated with diabetes mellitus (DM).
