Application of imaging techniques in pancreaticobiliary maljunction

Figure 5 Computed tomography. Coronal images generated from pancreatic phase scanning show that the pancreatic and biliary ducts join within pancreatic parenchyma. Furthermore, these images make it possible to visualize common channel (arrowhead) and ventral pancreatic duct (thin arrows), which is narrow and tortuous. Thick arrows indicate dorsal pancreatic duct[51]. Citation: Itoh S, Fukushima H, Takada A, Suzuki K, Satake H, Ishigaki T.
