CT differentiation of solid serous cystadenoma vs endocrine tumor of the pancreas.

Aim: To differentiate between solid serous cystadenoma (SSCA) and endocrine tumor (ET) of the pancreas using dynamic CT findings.

Materials And Methods: Between 2001 and 2008, there were 3 SSCA and 15 ET surgically resected in our institute, for whom preoperative multidetector-row CT were available. Various CT features were retrospectively evaluated by two radiologists in consensus for the differentiation between the two entities.
