We can't possibly know what your CT scan covered. You sound like you are getting thorough attention to a complex situation, and should trust the care but be well informed by learning all you can. If you have seen the scan or read the report (CTs don't look like our anatomy as we laypeople know it) you can look at a picture of the human torso and maybe determine if the pancreas was covered. Or ask the doctor next visit.
