Symptoms that are associated with decreased pancreatic enzyme flow: MRCP assessment
Abstract
Pancreatic exocrine insufficiency is one of the causes of malabsorption syndrome. In many cases of malabsorption syndrome, pancreatic exocrine insufficiency can be treated with pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy. Therefore, it is important to detect pancreatic endocrine insufficiency as early and accurately as possible. Recent studies have shown that cine‐dynamic MR cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) may be useful to evaluate pancreatic exocrine function
