Abstract

Pancreatic cancer remains a significant health challenge due to its high mortality rate and late-stage diagnosis. Its incidence has been steadily increasing, making it a primary global concern. Various advancements in diagnostic techniques have been explored to improve early detection and screening. This chapter emphasizes the current diagnostic methods available for the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer as well as other emerging diagnostic methodologies that hold immense promise for transforming the diagnosis and early detection of pancreatic cancer.
