      pancreatic neoplasm

    2. Mihai Comsa says:

      Pancreatic head enlarged.
      Edema around pancreatic head and adjacent duodenum.
      No ductal dilatation.

      2. Focal pancreatitis of pancreatic head

    3. Catarina says:

      why not a groove pancreatitis?

    6. Bruno says:

      Groove pancreatitis is a good option. There’s no expansive lesion and there is densification in duodenalpancreatiatic sulcus.

    7. Amalia says:

      My vote for a focal pancreatitis

    8. ahmed says:
