Difference analysis in prevalence of incidental pancreatic cystic lesions between computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.

The detection rate of PCLs on CT and MRI tended to be stable despite increasing scan volumes. Female had a slightly more frequency of PCLs than male. MRI detected more small PCLs(< 20 mm) and had higher impact on surgical resection of large PCL(≥20 mm) compared with CT.
