Diagnóstico de la pancreatitis y técnicas de imagen

Allyson Richardson*

Pancreatitis is a medical condition in which the pancreas, a gland located behind the stomach, becomes inflamed. The pancreas plays a vital role in the digestive system by producing enzymes that help break down food and hormones such as insulin that regulate blood sugar levels. Pancreatitis can range from mild to severe and can be acute or chronic. In this article, we will explore the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of pancreatitis.
