EDIC Pearls
--------------

🔹 Persistent SIRS + Rising BUN = High risk of severe AP
🔹 CRP >150 mg/L (48 h) suggests severe pancreatitis.
🔹 Hypocalcemia, elevated HCT, and high LDH indicate worse prognosis.
🔹 Early recognition of organ dysfunction is more important than any single scoring system.

**EDIC Imaging Pearls – Acute Pancreatitis**
------------------------------------------------------

🔹 **USG → Detect gallstones (biliary etiology)**
🔹 **CECT → Assess severity & local complications**
🔹 **MRCP/EUS → Identify occult biliary cause in idiopathic pancreatitis**
🔹 **ERCP → Therapeutic; indicated for cholangitis or persistent CBD obstruction**

**Easy Mnemonic:**
**USG = Stones → CT = Severity → MRCP = Search → ERCP = Solve**
