What Does This Abdominal MRI Test Result Indicate?

had a MRI w/wo contrast, they found the mass on T2weighted images is heterogenous and decreased in signal Intesity on T1. there is a small air-fluid level appears to be present within the mass. A complex possible infected duodenal diverticulum should be considered. Pancreatic duct is normal. Impression: large nonenhancing probably complex cystic mass in the region of the head of the pancreas and uncinate process A small air-fluid level can be seen within it. and the possibility that this represents a complex cyst or possible duodenal diverticulum is raised. I have no symptoms, except my upper ab hurts sometime, not pain, just discomfort, all blood work cbc.cmp were normal, bilirubin levels normal, the also say I have inlarged common bile duct 15mm, what does all this mean?

Hello,

this all means your having mass at the head of the pancreas but this mass may cause blockage of the bile duct and pancreatic duct may lead to dilatation of ducts.

So it may need stenting or surgery. please consult your surgical Gastroenterologist he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
