I've had 3 types of imaging along the way of my 20 month tussle with adenocarcinoma at the head of my pancreas that impinged upon and grew into my Common Bile Duct.... CT Scan, PET Scan, and MRI. Also, there are variations of these three types of imaging. Why not ask your oncologist or radiologist would yield the best initial diagnostic result?
Here are a couple among many online resources that might help you answer your question:

Thank you so much for your reply. I pray that things are going well for you. That is a very good idea to ask my radiologist about what the best type of scan would be for diagnosis. Thank you!
