    Abstract:
    Pancreas scintigraphy with 75selenomethionine, pancreocimine-secretin test and selective abdominal angiography was carried out in patients with chronic pancreatitis, pancreas carcinoma and subjects without any pancreas diseases. Scintigraphic changes in pancreas were found in 95.6 per cent of the patients with chronic pancreatitis (136 patients) in 92 per cent of them with pancreas carcinoma (25 patients) and in 53.4 per cent from the subjects without pancreas diseases (30 examined). Pathological changes in pancreatic secretion was found in 93.4 per cent of the patients with chronic pancreatitis (105 patients) in 93.8 per cent of the subjects with pancreas carcinoma (32 patients) and only in 3.3 per cent from the examined without pancreatic diseases. The angiographic examination is informative mainly in case of tumours and cysts of the pancreas. The diagnostic potentialities of the separate methods for pancreas examination were critically assessed. The basic diagnostic problems, in pancreas diseases are solved to a great extent with the combined examination with scintigraphy, pancreocimine-secretin test and angiography (76 patients).
