During this event we explored new developments in the early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.
We began by looking at a study exploring what support GPs need to start using new pancreatic cancer tests as soon as they become available. We then heard about the world’s first breath test for pancreatic cancer. To finish, we found out about the development of a decision risk tool for early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer among new-onset diabetes in UK primary care.
