Vascular Anatomy of the Pancreas

The pancreas has a complex vascularisation. In embryologic development, the head (ventral) and tail (dorsal) fuse. This creates the pancreas with the Santorini duct and Wirsung duct, yet these ducts do not always fuse. The pancreatic anatomy is not easily visualised in 2D, therefore, I’ve created an interactive overview of the most common vascular anatomy of the pancreas in Virtual Reality.
