Early diagnosis of pancreas cancer

Last Updated November 22, 2024

Early detection and treatment of pancreas cancer are important.

Sincer cancer is difficult to detect and diagnose, and is known as a refractory cancer with a low survival rate among all cancers, ranking fourth in the number of deaths from cancer.
However, it is said that if the diagnosis can be made at an early stage of less than 10 mm in size, the treatment results will be relatively good. Therefore, the "Yokohama City Screed Cancer Early Diagnosis Project" is being conducted to detect pancreatic cancer early and lead to treatment.
