Need more info: Would need more information to answer this. Why was the CT scan being performed? Pain? Pancreatitis? Some radiology findings are just incidental and have no clinical meaning. Ask your doctor who ordered the test if there is a concern for you. May need to see a GI specialist for endoscopy and endoscopic ultrasound of the pancreas.

See provider: The possibility of an intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) in your pancreas means you should follow up with your health care provider to continue looking into possibly further evaluating the abnormality seen on your MRI.
