[|Human|] Hi, thank you for taking my request! just got my CT if the thoracic and abdomen after my follow up from ca of the lung which was successfully removed ( upper right lobe only) no chemo or radiation needed thank the higher being.. it is compared to my previous one with no changes. It says my pancreas show mild atrophy. Did not see the first CT in Aug of 2012 but is this an issue? Otherwise feeling great and back to work full time.... :)
[|AI|]  Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. I am glad you feel better and that there is no sign of recurrence. This is nothing serious and pancreatic atrophy is part of human aging. Sometimes it can be sped up by alcohol and billiard stones. Pancreatic atrophy can cause abnormality in blood sugar levels, insulin and digestion so check your basic blood tests including lipase and amylase levels. If this is fine then you don't have to worry at all. Wish you good health.
