A biopsy during the EUS wasn’t taken to avoid pancreatitis. I have since had an MRI with and without contrast as well as MRCP. No ductal obstruction or focal lesion was found.

They are recommending another EUS with biopsy, since they can’t exclude possibly of IPMN.

I’ve had a CT scan, EUS w/o biopsy and now MRI/ MRCP. If I do have an IPMN, shouldn’t one of these imagings have shown it?

Also, the MRI/MRCP found dilation up to 8 mm when it was previously measured at 10 mm.
