ADC, apparent diffusion coefficient; AIP, autoimmune pancreatitis; AUC, area under the curve; Abbreviations:;ICC, intraclass correlation coefficient; PDAC, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

The univariate analysis was performed using the Mann–Whitney U test. For variables with statistically significant results, receiver operating characteristic curves were constructed and the AUCs were calculated. All variables showed significant between-group differences in the univariate analyses of data by Reader 1 and more than fair inter reader reliability. Texture parameters were calculated without filtering. Only the features that showed more than moderate AUC (>70%) for either reader are listed, and the full version can be found in the Supplemental.
