pancreatic cells
reverse
produce up to 2 liters of pancreatic juice per day
arranged in sac-like structures
juice converges into the two ducts which drain into the duodenum for digestion
juice enzymes capable of completeing almost all of the digestoin of our food
acini cells
reverse
retroperitoneal organ
lies posterior to the stomach, duodenum, proximal jejunum of the small bowel, also the transverse colon run horizontallyh acraoss the ab
contained in the anterior pararenal space
drapes across the mid aspect of the ab, just under the xyphoid process

Pancrease main parts
reverse
echogenicity is caompared to liver
echo intensity is slightly less than surrounding retroperitoneum and slightly greater than liver
texture depends on amount of fat dispersed between the lobules
fat is strongly echogenic so may be isoechoic with surround retroperitoneal fat
echotexture-homogeneous
surface smooth to slightly lobular
normal pancreatic tissue sonographically
reverse
carries blood from heart
enclosed in sheath containing nerve and vein
3 layers
tunica intima
tunica media
tunicat adventitia
Aorta
reverse
inner vessel wall
tunica intima
reverse
middle vessel wall
arteries have thicker to allow for great elasticity
tunica media
reverse
outer vessel wall
tunica adventitia
reverse
brachiocephalic
commom carotid
subclavian
Arteries arising from aortic arch
reverse
endters through aortic hiatus of diaphragm
descends anteriorly and slightly left of vertebral bodies
posterior and left of gastroesophogeal junction
flanked on either side by diaphragmatic crura
Anatomy of Abdominal aorta

incidence increases with age
affects more men than women
smoking
hyperlipidemia
diabetes
HBP
Atheromatous disease factors
reverse
swelling in bloos vessel with focal or diffuse
2 types
true
false (pseudo)
Aneurysm
reverse
95% are infrarenal
30-60% are assymptomatic
may have ab, leg or back pain
higher ince=idence in Men over 60
incidence of AAAis 70-90% in men over 65
abdomial aorta aneurysm
AAA
reverse
focal dilation of aorta larger than 3cm
elongate as the grow
most deflect to left or kink anteriorly or both
aventitia is generallly echogenic from adjacent fibrofatty tissue
mural thrombus is usually low to med echogenicity and makes up most of wall
intimal lining may be smooth or irregula with calcifications
Sonographic appearance of AAA
reverse
measure outer to outer
maximum true lenght and width and transvers dimensions
document locatoin include suprarenal extension or iliac involvement
document wall type: calcified plaque, flowing blood, soft plaque or well established plaque

Descriptive terms for AAA
reverse
sharp junction between normal and abnormal
Bulbous AAA
reverse
gradual transition between normal and abnormal
Fusiform AAA
reverse
sharp sudden transition between normal and abnormal
Saccular AAA
reverse

Dumbell AAA
reverse
rippled appearcance
mostly in cephalic region
