This commentary describes the common non-neoplastic and neoplastic pancreatic lesions. The images in this commentary depict classic cross-sectional images, sonographic findings, and the cytopathologic diagnosis of each lesion. Most common nonneoplastic lesions include pseudocysts, autoimmune pancreatitis, and chronic pancreatitis. Most common neoplastic lesions include serous cystadenomas, intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms, mucinous cystic neoplasms, solid pseudopapillary neoplasms, neuroendocrine tumors, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, acinar cell carcinoma, and metastases to the pancreas. The aim of this Cytoimaging Correlation Series is to demonstrate the multidisciplinary involvement in the diagnosis of pancreatic pathology and to highlight main findings in the most common entities found in everyday practice.  \nKEYWORDS  \ncytopathology, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), endoscopy, imaging, pancreatic cytopathology  \nINTRODUCTION  \nPancreatic lesions are rising in prevalence, likely because of increasing access to cross-sectional imaging. They can be subtyped into neoplastic and non-neoplastic lesions. Some lesions are characteristic on computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and/or endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), whereas others are nonspecific. A diagnosis of pancreatic lesions is typically made by clinical history, cross-sectional imaging, and fluid and/or tissue sampling by EUS with fine-needle aspiration or biopsy sent for cytologic  \nexamination. 1,2 As a matter of fact, there may be no system that emphasizes the importance of morphologic and clinical correlation more than the pancreaticobiliary tract.  \nAccording to the newly published World Health Organization classification,2 analysis of the imaging results should guide the proper evaluation of morphologic findings, deciding whether that sample is satisfactory, diagnostic, and truly representative of the lesion targeted.2 In cystic lesions, imaging also plays a pivotal role, indicating a probable malignancy and guiding the radiologist, endoscopist, and pathologist to target the most suspicious area for  \n\n| The last two authors contributed equally to this article.\u003Cbr>This paper is part of an ongoing series in Cancer Cytopathology, which explores corresponding radiologic imaging and cytology findings for commonly encountered entities in cytopathology practice. |\n| --- |\n| This is an open access article under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial License, which permits use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited and is not used for commercial purposes.\u003Cbr>© 2025 The Author(s).
