Mass-forming lesions of the duodenum: A pictorial review
1Department of Radiology, hôpital Lariboisière, 2, rue Ambroise-Paré, 75010 Paris, France.
Abstract:
Recent advances in imaging have resulted in marked changes in the investigation of the duodenum, which still remains primarily evaluated with videoendoscopy. However, improvements in computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging have made detection and characterization of duodenal mass-forming abnormalities easier. The goal of this pictorial review was to illustrate the most common conditions of the duodenum that present as mass-forming lesions with a specific emphasis on CT and MR imaging. MR imaging used in conjunction with duodenal distension appears as a second line imaging modality for the characterization of duodenal mass-forming lesions. CT remains the first line imaging modality for the detection and characterization of a wide range of duodenal mass-forming lesions.
