Sa1217 Are There Predictive Factors for P2 Findings on Inpatient Video Capsule Endoscopy

G A A b st ra ct s of cancers of both pancreas and biliary tract, DWI showed excellent sensitivity but slightly lower specificity than PET/CT. 4) Hyperintense region by DWI prior to treatment in all the patients with AIP completely disappeared after long term treatment. 5) Hyperintense region by DWI markedly improved 2 weeks after steroid pulse therapy, making the diagnosis of AIP possible on this ground. CONCLUSON: DWI was as good as PET/CT in assessing gallbladder and pancreatic cancer. DWI was not as useful as PET/CT in detecting bile duct and Ampulla of Vater cancer, making the additional use of MRCP imaging necessary. In the dignosis of lymph node metastases DWI appears to be more sensitive than PET/CT. DWI was useful in the assessment of curative effect of steroid therapy and also in early diagnosis utilizing the response to steroid pulse therapy in AIP patients.
