AIM: To evaluate magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of pancreatic metastases secondary to primary lung cancers. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Eleven cases included T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and spectral presaturation attenuated inversion recovery T2-weighted images. RESULTS: Of the 21 total pancreatic lesions evaluated, 10 exhibited a peripheral rim of high signal intensity, 9 displayed a homogeneous signal intensity, and 2 lesions demonstrated a heterogeneous pattern of contrast enhancement. CONCLUSION: Limitations in evaluating pancreatic metastases by MR imaging require definitive diagnoses to rely on both clinical data and MR imaging. |
