Abstract

Background: One of the most frequent emergency conditions that patients bring to the hospital is pancreatitis; in some situations, the condition worsens quickly, while in others, it is moderate and self-limiting. It becomes imperative to conduct rapid assessment in order to prevent potentially disastrous outcomes. Radiological imaging and laboratory investigations are necessary for diagnosis. Organ and soft tissue structure imaging is diagnosed and evaluated using ultrasonography. The present study was undertaken to compare the role of ultrasonography (USG) and computed tomography (CT) in patients with acute and chronic pancreatitis.
