Validation of threshold values for pancreas thickness and T1-weighted signal intensity ratio in the pediatric pancreas

ConclusionPreviously defined thresholds for pancreas thickness and pancreas:spleen T1-weighted signal intensity ratio appear too restrictive for a pediatric population. Further study is needed to define optimal quantitative metrics for findings of chronic pancreatitis in children.
