Glucagonoma

Whole Body Systems
Abdomen & Pelvis

A glucagonoma is an uncommon pancreatic tumour that produces excess glucagon, causing high blood sugar and other systemic symptoms. An MRI may show a mass in the pancreas consistent with a glucagonoma. Finding a glucagonoma early may allow for surgical treatment before it causes significant metabolic complications or spreads. MRI is well-suited for characterising pancreatic tumours including glucagonoma, providing detailed assessment of tumour extent and vascular involvement.

SCReening explained
It’s important to understand that OneMRI's full-body scan is a general proactive health scan developed to include areas where preventative screening delivers the most meaningful insight in a way that is safe and non-invasive. The scan should be used to compliment other routine scans and screening. It should not replace standard screening protocols or targeted procedures as recommended by your doctor, specialist or health provider. Examples of these include mammogram, prostate examination, cervical screening, colonoscopy, and lung cancer screening.
