Its high-mortality rate is attributed to pancreatic cancer biology, difficulty in early diagnosis, and lack of standardized international guidelines in assessing the pancreatic masses. This book aims to provide an update in the current state of play in pancreatic cancer diagnosis and to evaluate the benefits and limitations of the available diagnostic technology and therapy. The main modalities for diagnosis are imaging with HCT, MRI, USE, and PET. Some chapters review the improvements in the techniques used. Timely and accurate diagnosis of pancreatic cancer can lead to improve in the current poor outcome of this disease. 606 $aPancreas$xCancer 606 $aPancreatic Neoplasms 610 $aMedicine 610 $aGastrointestinal Oncology 610 $aOncology 610 $aHealth Sciences 615 0$aPancreas$xCancer. 615 2$aPancreatic Neoplasms. 676 $a616.99437 702 $aRodrigo$b Luis$c(Physician) 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910317795403321 996 $aAdvances in Pancreatic Cancer$92178730 997 $aUNINA
