Value of 3-T MR imaging in intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm with a concomitant invasive carcinoma
ConclusionsThese observations suggest that the PDFF of the pancreas is associated with the presence of IPMN-IC.Key Points• The cause and risk factors of IPMN with a concomitant invasive carcinoma have not yet been clarified.• The PDFF of the pancreas was significantly higher in the IPMN-IC group than in the normal pancreas group or the IPMN group.• Pancreatic PDFF may be a potential biomarker for the development of IPMN with a concomitant invasive carcinoma.
