== Investigation == * Endoscopy ** Identified 75%, but more if a side-viewing scope is used * AXR - atypical gas bubble * CT ** Large diverticula seen as a mass-like structure interposed between the duodenum and pancreatic head, containing air, air-fluid levels, fluid contrast material, or debris * MRCP ** Good for demonstrating the relationship between the diverticulum and the biliary and pancreatic ducts, and associated pathologic changes in the biliary system and pancreas * CTA/99mTc-RBC scan - good for diagnosing haemorrhage
