Methods to check the pancreas include: abdominal ultrasound, abdominal CT, MRI, tumor markers and so on. 1. Abdominal ultrasound: ultrasound is the most commonly used means of screening for pancreatic diseases. Its advantages are convenience, low price, no trauma, etc. However, due to the deep location of the pancreas, it is easy to be interfered by the gas in the gastrointestinal tract, and thus it is mostly used for the initial screening of pancreatic diseases. 2. Abdominal CT: Abdominal CT is one of the most important examinations for diagnosing pancreatic diseases, and it has a good effect on acute and chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic cysts, pancreatic cancer, etc. Enhanced CT can further clarify the scope of the lesion and the blood circulation. 3. Nuclear magnetic resonance (MRI): The effect of abdominal MRI scanning for pancreatic diseases is similar to that of CT, but with the help of MRI technology, some special imaging can be carried out, for example, MRI cholangiopancreatography can clearly show the morphology of pancreatic ducts, and determine whether there is any obstruction or dilatation of pancreatic ducts and so on. 4. Tumor markers: Tumor markers are mostly used to assist in the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. Tumor markers that may be elevated in patients with pancreatic cancer include carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), glycoantigen 199 (CA199), and cancer antigen 50 (CA50). Patients who are suspected of having pancreatic disease are advised to visit a hospital as soon as possible and consult a medical professional to determine the appropriate test in light of their condition.
