Pancreas is one of the important endocrine and digestive organs of human body, and its disease will affect the health of the whole body. Currently, medical ultrasound scanners have become one of the common diagnostic tools for pancreatic diseases, which can provide high definition images to help doctors make accurate diagnosis. This paper introduces the application of medical ultrasound scanner in the diagnosis of pancreatic diseases.

First, the principle of medical ultrasonic scanner

Medical ultrasonic scanner is a medical device which uses ultrasonic waves to scan and image inside the human body. It works by generating ultrasonic waves through vibrations, which are then sent inside the body. When the ultrasonic wave meets the different organizational structure or liquid, gas and other substances, it will be reflected, scattered or spread, and then form echo signal. By measuring the timing and strength of the return signals, medical ultrasound scanners can produce images of the pancreas.

2. Application of medical ultrasound scanner in diagnosis of pancreatic diseases

Diagnosis of pancreatitis: Pancreatitis is a common disease of the pancreas, its early symptoms are not obvious. Medical ultrasound scanners can examine the size, shape, and echo of the pancreas to help doctors determine whether they have pancreatitis.

Diagnosis of pancreatic tumor: Pancreatic tumor is a serious disease of the pancreas, and its early detection and treatment are particularly important. By observing the tissue structure and blood flow of the pancreas, the medical ultrasound scanner can evaluate the nature and distribution of the lesions, so as to determine whether there is a pancreatic tumor.

Diagnosis of pancreatic duct disease: The pancreatic duct is the channel that carries pancreatic fluid, and its disease can lead to obstruction of pancreatic fluid discharge and abnormal pancreatic function. Medical ultrasound scanner can detect the location, diameter, wall thickness and other parameters of the pancreatic duct to help doctors diagnose pancreatic duct diseases.

Diagnosis of calculus: Pancreatic calculus is a common disease of the pancreas, which can lead to pancreatic necrosis and other dangerous conditions. Medical ultrasound scanners can detect the location, size and shape of the stones to help doctors diagnose pancreatic stones.

Three, the advantages of medical ultrasonic scanner

Safety: Medical ultrasonic scanner does not need to use radioactive materials or other harmful substances, no radiation and pollution to the human body, high safety.

Non-invasive: Medical ultrasound scanners use ultrasound, do not require puncture or injection, and do not cause invasive damage to the body.
