Abstract
The radiological differential diagnosis of acute pancreatitis includes diffuse pancreatic lymphoma, diffuse autoimmune pancreatitis and groove located mass lesions that may mimic groove pancreatitis. Dual energy computed tomography and diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging are useful in the early diagnosis of acute pancreatitis, and dual energy computed tomography is also useful in severity assessment and prognosis prediction. Walled off necrosis is an important complication in terms of prognosis, and it is important to know its radiological findings and distinguish it from pseudocyst.
