ABDOMEN:LIVER, BILIARY TRACT: No suspicious hepatic lesion is identified. There is scattered focal fat deposition. No intra- or extrahepatic biliary ductal dilatation. The gallbladder is absent.SPLEEN: No significant abnormality noted.PANCREAS: Post-surgical changes of the pancreas with a small residual head/uncinate process. No evidence of acute inflammation.

There is a 3.2 x 4.9 cm (transverse x craniocaudal) T2 hyperintense collection within the lower anterior abdominal wall soft tissues, in the region of prior drain, which is only visualized on the coronal T2 images (image 33, series 3) and not included within the field of view on axial imaging.OTHER: No significant abnormality noted.
1.Anterior abdominal wall T2 hyperintense collection in the region of a prior drain; this may represent a seroma, but is only visualized on coronal images and incompletely evaluated as it is not included in the field of view on contrast enhanced axial sequences.2.Post-surgical changes of the pancreas without acute intraabdominal abnormality.
