Synopsis

Keywords: Pancreas, PancreasWe evaluated relationships of age and gender with shifted apparent diffusion coefficient (sADC), proton density fat fraction (PDFF), T1 relaxation time, and pancreas size using 3-T MRI. sADC increased and anterior-posterior diameter decreased with age, while T1 relaxation time and PDFF showed no correlations with age. These results would offer beneficial information regarding pancreatic imaging.
