Brief Answer:
CT scan done?

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.R.K and I am pleased to assist you.

In both the occasions, the lipase was less than two times the upper limit of normal and amylase was within normal limits when it was tested.

We take it as significant if it is more than 2 times the upper limit of normal.

Was any scanning of the abdomen done?

Regards,
Dr.R.K
