A 63-year-old man had mass-forming AIP with two masses in the pancreas. a T2WI, an oval-shaped mass located in the pancreatic tail, is clearly observed as hyperintense with an indistinct margin. In addition, a hypointense rim is seen surrounding the pancreas. b MRCP image shows stenosis of the MPD of the pancreatic tail (penetrating duct sign) (arrow). c On the DP image, the mass shows hyperintensity with a peripancreatic enhancing rim (capsule-like rim enhancement). d A second area of lesion is observed in the pancreatic uncinate process (arrow). The area appears round and heterogeneously hyperintense
