[Abstract] Pancreatic parenchyma and its ductal system are formed by the dorsal and ventral pancreatic buds at the early stage of embryologic development following its rotation. Various anatomical variations may happen during the rotation and fusion process. Physiological change of the pancreas refers to the phenomenon that the volume decreases and the acinar tissue is replaced gradually by fatty tissue. Magnetic resonance imaging is widely applied in assessing pancreatic disorders nowadays. Recognition of anatomical variations and fatty deposit of the pancreas conduces to interpreting correctly diverse findings on MR imaging, and laying a solid foundation for diagnosing accurately the diseases in clinical work.
