Abstract
The appearance of annular pancreas on magnetic resonance (MR) images i s described in a 14-year-old boy with pancreatitis and incomplete panc reas divisum. The presence of the coexisting abnormalities complicated the interpretation of an upper gastrointestinal series and computed t omographic (CT) study. MR imaging was useful as a problem-solving tech nique to supplement the conventional imaging tests.
