MR is the best imaging method to detect small solid pancreatic lesions and to characterize small nodules after CT or US detection so improving differential diagnosis. Also, in case of indeterminate pancreatic masses the added values of MR can allow to reach the correct diagnosis. All the diagnostic power of MRI comes from the multiparametric aspect of the study also before contrast media administration. MR play a crucial role in the liver staging of pancreatic cancer. MRI has gained an increasing pivotal role in the follow up of cystic pancreatic lesions.
