Figure 13 Acute necrotic collection. Axial T2 single-shot turbo spin-echo image. There is a well-defined fluid collection involving the pancreatic neck with peripancreatic extension and communication with the main pancreatic duct. This collection demonstrates well-defined outlines and heterogenous low T2 signal intensity debris within it in keeping with acute necrotic collection. Multiple gallstones are also noted.
