Abstract
We report the sonographic, CT, and MRI findings in a case of focal fatty infiltration of the pancreas. Sonography revealed an echogenic mass in pancreas head. On CT, the mass was hypodense. The mass showed same signal intensity to the surrounding normal pancreas on inโphase T1โweighted MR images and a loss of signal intensity on opposedโphase MR images. ยฉ 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
