Localization of the head of the pancreas using the junction of the left renal vein and the inferior vena cava.

L R Kuhns, G S Borlaza, R Seigel, K J Cho.   

Abstract

The junction of the left renal vein with the inferior vena cava is visualized on most computed tomography studies of the abdomen. This junction is a useful guide in localizing the pancreatic head, just as the superior mesenteric artery is used to localize the body of the pancreas.
