Purpose. To access the possibilities of ultrasound technique with dynamic contrast enhancement in the diagnosis of clinically-morphologic forms of acute pancreatitis. Materials and methods. The study included 30 patients, male and female, from the age 18 and older, who were diagnosed with acute pancreatitis and were admitted for the treatment to Omsk City Clinical Emergency Hospital No 2 between 2015 and 2018. Ultrasound examination of pancreas using B-mode and CEUS was conducted no later than 24 hours since the start of the illness. Verification of obtained results was done by CT, MRI and diagnostic videolaparoscopy. Among 30 tested patients 20 (66%) were observed to have interstitial form of acute pancreatitis and 10 (34%) were observed to have necrotic form of acute pancreatitis. Conclusion. The factor analysis has demonstrated that diagnostic criteria obtained in B-mode only do not allow differentiating clinically morphologic forms of acute pancreatitis. Using B-mode in conjunction with CEUS allows increasing accuracy of inacute pancreatitis diagnostics |
