Diagnosis of the diseases of the pancreas

  • Published:
The American Journal of Digestive Diseases

Summary

Diseases of the pancreas, such as acute hemorrhagic necrosis and stricture or obstruction of the pancreatic duct, or of the papilla Vateri, have some analogy with acute yellow atrophy of the liver and obstruction of the common bile duct, respectively.

Determination of amylase and sugar in the urine and eventually in the blood, examination of the gastric content and the feces by the method described, are recommended; roentgenological examination by a flat film or after a barium meal intake are important.
