RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: To study the MRI characteristics of early extrapancreatic necrosis and compare them with those of peripancreatic fluid collections in acute pancreatitis (AP). MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective study enrolled 70 AP patients who had extrapancreatic collections visible on MRI within 1 week of onset. Extrapancreatic collections were divided into extrapancreatic necrosis and peripancreatic fluid collections based on follow-up MRI, CT, or pathology. The number and area of extrapancreatic collections, extrapancreatic inflammation on MRI (EPIM) score, MR severity index score and clinical characteristics were evaluated and compared between the two groups. RESULTS: Of the seventy AP patients, 32 (45.7%) had extrapancreatic necrosis, and 38 (54.3%) had peripancreatic fluid collections. The number and area of extrapancreatic collections, MR severity index score, EPIM score, and prevalence of associated hemorrhage were significantly higher in extrapancreatic necrosis patients than in those with peripancreatic fluid collections (p < 0.001). Among the single indicators, the accuracy of the area of extrapancreatic collections (AUCâ¯=â¯0.871) was comparable to that of the EPIM score for predicting extrapancreatic necrosis and was significantly higher than that of the other two indicators. The combination of all indicators showed the highest predictive accuracy (AUCâ¯=â¯0.949), and combinations of two or more indicators demonstrated significantly higher predictive accuracy for extrapancreatic necrosis than any single indicator (p < 0.05) except for the area of extrapancreatic collections (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION: The MRI characteristics have the potential to differentiate early extrapancreatic necrosis from peripancreatic fluid collections and help indicate extrapancreatic necrosis.
