自身免疫性胰腺炎影像学诊断现状及研究进展

The present imaging diagnosis and research progress of autoimmune pancreatitis

自身免疫性胰腺炎(Autoimmune pancreatitis,AIP)是自身免疫机制异常所引发的一种特殊类型的慢性胰腺炎。由于缺乏特异性的临床表现和检测指标,AIP在临床上与慢性胰腺炎、胰腺癌难以鉴别,激素冲击疗法的治疗时期直接影响AIP的预后效果,故早期诊断和合理治疗对患者预后极为重要。近年来,无创性影像检查手段在对自身免疫性疾病诊断方面已取得了一些进展,本文对AIP影像诊断现状及研究进展作一综述。

Autoimmune pancreatitis（AIP） is a special type of chronic pancreatitis as a result of abnormal autoimmune mechanism. For lack of specific clinical manifestations and detective indicators, it is difficult to differentiate AIP from chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer. Moreover, the treatment timing and course of hormone therapy directly affect the prognosis of AIP. Therefore, early diagnosis and reasonable treatment is very important. In recent years, noninvasive imaging method in autoimmune diseases diagnosis has been progressing. This article will make a review about the research progress of imaging diagnosis in AIP.
