Up rt abdominal pain.ct done wout dye. allerguc to dye. would it still show pancreatitis if i had it with no dye?

Maybe: Sometimes there is still visible inflammation. That said, blood work is better at diagnosing pancreatitis than ct. Ct is helpful for ruling out complications such as psuedocyst.

Yes: A non-contrast ct would show sever pancreatitis. Do you have a gallbladder? Did you have an ultrasound?
