Evaluation of the modified computed tomography severity index (<scp>MCTSI</scp>) and computed tomography severity index (<scp>CTSI</scp>) in predicting severity and clinical outcomes in acute pancreatitis

Abstract

CT indexes outperformed the classic APACHE-II score for evaluating severity parameters in acute pancreatitis, with a slight advantage of CTSI over MCTSI. CTSI accurately predicted pancreatic infections and the need for intervention.
