NOTE: Notice how the measurement of the CBD is at the widest mar­gins of the lumen. Sometimes Doppler is helpful to differentiate the CBD and hepatic artery. Axial images and measurements are not required for the CHD and CBD unless the longitudinal CBD measurement exceeds the normal limit.

Objectives
At the end of this chapter, you will be able to:
• Define the key words.
• Distinguish the sonographic appearance of the pancreas and the terms used to describe it.
• Describe the transducer options for scanning the pancreas.
• List the various suggested breathing techniques for patients when scanning the pancreas.
• List the suggested patient positions (and options) when scanning the pancreas.
• Describe the patient prep for a pancreas study.
• Distinguish normal variants of the pancreas.
• Name the survey steps and explain how to evaluate the entire length, width, and depth of the pancreas.
• Explain the order and exact locations to take representative images of the pancreas.
• Answer the review questions at the end of the chapter.

Overview

Location
The pancreas is retroperitoneal (located in the retroperitoneum, the
portion of abdominopelvic cavity posterior to the peritoneal sac). It extends from the second portion of the duodenum, across the midline, to the hilum of the spleen.
The descriptive portions of the pancreas are located as follows:
(a) Head: The portion of pancreas immediately anterior to the
inferior vena cava; between the medial curve of the second
147
148 PART III Abdominal Scanning Protocols
portion of the duodenum and the superior mesenteric vein. Its lateral border is marked anteriorly by the gastroduodenal
artery and posteriorly by the common bile duct (CBD).
(b) Uncinate process: A medial extension of the head that lies
directly posterior to the superior mesenteric vein. It has been known to extend as far left as the aorta.
(c) Neck: The portion of pancreas directly anterior to the superior
mesenteric vein.
(d) Body: The portion of pancreas that extends left lateral from
the neck and lies between the posterior wall of the antrum of the stomach and the superior mesenteric artery. Its left lateral border is generally described as not definite.
(e) Tail: The portion of pancreas that typically lies posterior to
the stomach, between the left lateral edge of the spine and the hilum of the spleen.
Anatomy
The pancreas is a nonencapsulated multilobular gland. Its blood
supply is from the superior mesenteric artery, splenic artery, and
gastroduodenal artery. Venous drainage is through splenic and superior mesenteric vein tributaries.
Wirsung’s duct, the main pancreatic duct, extends the length of
the pancreas and enlarges toward the head up to 3 mm. It meets with the common bile duct at the pancreas head, and joined together or separately, the ducts enter the second portion of the duodenum.
Santorini’s duct is a normal variant that serves as an accessory
pancreatic duct from the anterior portion of the pancreas head. It enters the duodenum superior to and separate from Wirsung’s duct and the common bile duct.
The size, shape, and lie of the pancreas vary somewhat. The size
decreases with age. The shape has been compared to a dumbbell, sausage, and a comma with the larger segment representing the head. The lie or orientation of the pancreas has varying degrees of horizontal oblique.
The normal adult pancreas is 15 to 20|cm in length.
• The anterior to posterior dimensions of the head range from 2.0
to 3.0|cm.
• The anterior to posterior dimensions of the neck range from 1.5
to 2.5|cm.
• The anterior to posterior dimensions of the body range from 1.5
to 2.5|cm.
• The anterior to posterior dimensions of the tail range from 1.0 to
2.0|cm.
