The current state of radiation diagnosis of pancreatic cancer

Abstract

The article discusses the role of modalities of radiation imaging in the detection and differential diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. There is presented the problem of diagnosis of pancreatic cancer at the early stages and possible ways of its solving. Analysis of literature finds out that the detection and differential diagnosis of small formations of the pancreas are difficult and require a multimodal approach. None of the modem methods could be considered as the “gold standard” for detection and differential diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.
