ABSTRACT
The ultrasonographic and computed tomography features of four cases of solid and papillary epithelial neoplasm (SPEN) - a rare pancreatic tumour - are described. Although not diagnostic, the presence of these imaging features in the typical clinical setting may permit pre-operative radiological diagnosis and facilitate planning for curative surgery for this malignant tumour which has an excellent prognosis even without further adjuvant therapy.
