Objective: The purpose of this article is to highlight the imaging features of congenital anomalies and normal variants of the pancreatic duct and the pancreas using contemporary imaging techniques such as MR cholangiopancreatography (MRCP), MRI, and helical CT.
Conclusion: Congenital anomalies and normal variants of the pancreatic duct and the pancreas may be clinically significant and may create a diagnostic challenge. Recognition of the updated imaging features of these entities is important in clinical management and for avoiding misdiagnosis.
