We describe radiological characteristics of intraductal papillary mucinous tumor (IPMT) of the pancreas, giving a classification of IPMT based on imaging findings at Ultrasound, Computed Tomography, Magnetic Resonance and Cholangiopancreatography with Magnetic Resonance. Different from the first IPMT classification, based on anatomical correlation, we propose a classification based on anatomical, clinical and radiological findings, that describes focal or diffuse main duct IPMT, combined IPMT and unifocal or multifocal side branch IPMT.
