Magnetic resonance imaging for acute pancreatitis in type 2 diabetes patients

Figure 6 A 47-year-old man with type 2 diabetes mellitus with moderately severe acute pancreatitis whose average blood glucose level was 10. 05 mmol/L. A and B: Compared with the in-phase T1-weighted image (A), an unequivocal signal intensity loss in liver parenchyma is demonstrated on the out of phase T1-weighted image (B). In the left perirenal space and anterior pararenal space, acute peripancreatic fluid collections (arrows) is homogeneous hypointensity on T1-weighted image (A) and hyperintensity on T2-weighted image with fat suppression (B). L: Liver; LK: Left kidney; P: Pancreas; RK: Right kidney.
