Fig. 4.
Abdominal MRI (A, B) depicted a pseudocyst of the uncinate process of the pancreas. The cystic lesion shows a direct connection to the superior mesenteric vein on the contrast enhanced T1 weighted images (A) as well as on the T2 weighted images (B) (arrow in A and B). The connection between the cyst and the superior mesenteric vein was also detectable on a contrast enhanced CT study which was performed one week prior to the MRI examination.
