The Diagnosis of Chronic Pancreatitis

Chronic Pancreatitis

To develop a new standardized multimodal diagnostic approach to CP considering: WP 1: Fat in faeces and functional testing; the combination of tests has to be easy to practice, should take as little time as possible and discomfort for the patient has to be minimized WP 2: Advanced ultrasonography and imaging modalities. The focus is on validating standard parenchymal, contrast enhanced and functional ultrasound compared to a modern imaging standard. (CT, EUS, MRI) To evaluate the reliability and feasibility of these novel methods in healthy volunteers; AND To compare findings in known severe CP patients and different stages of pancreatic insufficiency in patients with CP.

Predictors of Pain Relief in Chronic Pancreatitis Undergoing ESWL

Chronic Pancreatitis

Extra corporeal shock wave therapy (ESWL) is recommended for pain management in patients with stone formation in pancreatic duct. ESWL can cause complete stone fragmentation and removal in 70% patients, associated with 85 to 90% pain relief. Investigators aim to study, predictors pain relief in patients who undergo ESWL, to find out which patients will improve and which patients won't improve in terms of pain.

Classification and Comparison of Early-onset and Late-onset Idiopathic Chronic Pancreatitis

Chronic PancreatitisIdiopathic Chronic Pancreatitis

Classification of early-onset idiopathic chronic pancreatitis (EOICP) and late-onset idiopathic chronic pancreatitis (LOICP) was proposed based on bimodal distribution of age at onset of idiopathic chronic pancreatitis (ICP). However, studies of larger populations prove it may be normal distribution. Therefore, the aim of the study is to find what the distribution of age at onset of ICP is and whether the classification of EOICP and LOICP is meaningful.

EUS Based Prevalence of Chronic Pancreatitis in Alcoholic Cirrhosis

Alcoholic Cirrhosis

Alcohol is the common precipitating factor for both cirrhosis of liver as well as alcohol related chronic pancreatitis. However, in real life clinical setting, clinicians do not frequently see many cases of symptomatic pancreatitis in patients who present with features of cirrhosis of liver. On the contrary, in some patients presenting with alcohol related chronic pancreatitis, evidence of cirrhosis of liver is observed on imaging without other clinical features of cirrhosis.
