Pancreatitis is considered acute when the inflammation comes on suddenly and only lasts for a short period of time. It's considered chronic when it keeps coming back or when the inflammation doesn't heal for months or years. Chronic pancreatitis can lead to permanent scarring and damage.
Chronic pancreatitis causes severe damage to your pancreas. This means that your body won't be able to make needed enzymes and hormones. This can result in malnutrition, because you won't be able to digest foods. Chronic pancreatitis can also cause diabetes.
X-ray images are often the first step in diagnosing chronic pancreatitis. Your doctor can examine the images for signs of disease on the pancreas. Ultrasound uses sound wave technology to create images. This is helpful in detecting changes to the pancreatic ducts or the presence of calcium deposits.
The most common cause of acute pancreatitis is having gallstones. Gallstones cause inflammation of your pancreas as stones pass through and get stuck in a bile or pancreatic duct.

General Equivalence Map Definitions The ICD-9 and ICD-10 GEMs are used to facilitate linking between the diagnosis codes in ICD-9-CM and the new ICD-10-CM code set. The GEMs are the raw material from which providers, health information vendors and payers can derive specific applied mappings to meet their needs.
