[The role of radiological methods in complex diagnostics of pancreonecrosis]
Abstract
The results of treatment of 77 patients with necrotic forms of acute pancreatitis are critically revised. The diagnostic algorithm of pancreonecrosis, consisting of ultrasound, computed scanning, magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography proved to be useful and effective. The Balthazar computed tomography severity index allows to prognose the course of the disease more accurately.
