OBJECTIVES: Signal intensity ratio of pancreas to spleen (SI ratio p/s ) on fat-suppressed T1-weighted images of magnetic resonance imaging has been associated with pancreatic exocrine function. We here investigated the predictive value of the SI ratio p/s for the development of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD).
MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study comprised 208 patients who underwent PD. NAFLD was defined as a liver-to-spleen attenuation ratio of <0.9 calculated by a computed tomography 1 year after surgery. SI ratio p/s was calculated by dividing the average pancreas SI by the spleen SI. We retrospectively investigated the association of clinical variables including the SI ratio p/s and NAFLD by univariate and multivariate analyses.
RESULTS: NAFLD after 1 year was developed in 27 patients (13%). In multivariate analysis, the SI ratio p/s < 1 ( P < 0.001) was an independent predictor of incidence of NAFLD. The SI ratio p/s < 1 was associated with low amylase level of the pancreatic juice ( P < 0.001) and progressed pancreatic fibrosis ( P = 0.017). According to the receiver operating characteristics curve, the SI ratio p/s had better prognostic ability of NAFLD than the remnant pancreas volume.
CONCLUSIONS: The SI ratio p/s is useful to predict NAFLD development after PD. Moreover, the SI ratio p/s can be a surrogate marker, which represents exocrine function of the pancreas.
