Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Scoring for visualization of the main pancreatic duct on 1.5 T and 3.0 T MRP

    1. Scoring for overall visualization of the main pancreatic duct (MPD): 1-4 points (1, entirely invisible; 2, faintly and partially visible; 3, faintly but entirely visible/clearly but partially visible; 4, clearly and entirely visible) 2. Scoring for visualization of MPD stricture: 1-4 points (1, invisible; 2, poorly visible; 3, moderately visible; 4, clearly visible) * Reference standard: ERP

    Outcome measure will be assessed after a week following MRP examination

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Signal-to-noise ratio of the main pancreatic duct on 1.5 T and 3.0 T MRP

    Outcome measure will be assessed after a week following MRP examination

  • The rate of concordance in the stricture type of the main pancreatic duct between MRP and ERP

    Outcome measure will be assessed after a week following MRP examination

  • Scoring for confidence in diagnosing AIP based on MRP findings

    Outcome measure will be assessed after a week following MRP examination

Study Arms (1)

Autoimmune pancreatitis

Patients with autoimmune pancreatitis based on clinical and CT findings
