Meta Hunter for Pancreatic Diseases

MSCT needs to be applied when 3D-NLS cannot clearly visualize certain areas of the pancreas or assume volumetric processes in the pancreas.


MSCT was used in all 30 patients (100%) to characterize pancreatic disease. According to the data obtained, in the absence of an increase in pancreatic size, MSCT is less informative compared to 3D reconstruction, since it does not provide unambiguous information about the parenchymal changes in the pancreatic tissue when its radiometric density is close to normal values. .


MSCT offers the possibility of diagnosing exacerbating stages of pancreatitis: calcinosis, pseudocyst formation, involvement of peripheral organs or atrophy of the pancreatic parenchyma. This method allows assessment of the influence of soft tissues beyond the pancreas and surrounding structures to assess the prevalence of processes and inflammatory responses in the parapancreatic tissues and retroperitoneal space. But sometimes fibrotic and inflammatory changes may mimic tumor invasion.

The disadvantage of this diagnostic method is the high cost. Another disadvantage is the strict binding of the acquired images to the transverse plane.


Meta Hunter is very effective in diagnosing many diseases and can save you a lot of money.
