Abstract Title Early detection of pancreatic cancer due to fatty pancreas and pancreatic fibrosis diagnosed by FibroScan
Abstract Project Describtion
o scientific or technical questions to address
Do we need simple , non invasive tool for early detection of pancreatic cancer?
So this project is applicable and important to others in the broader community because the use of FibroScan which is simple techeniuqe, novel and Unique to . Avilable now at most center of gastroenterology , hepatology . the time of examination of patients about 10minutes, without radiation , patients fasting only 3-5 hours , the results automatically . digital at the same sitting and not much time consuming.The data will be 5 Images for every patients plus other laboratory data.We are in need to expertise, computational tools, and/or computing environment needed to carry out your project.
Non – alcoholic fatty pancreatic disease ( NAFPD ) is a hot topic in gastroenterology. Just as obesity and metabolic syndrome are global problems, pancreatic steatosis especially in the form of NAFPD is an important challenge for pancreatologists, diabetologists, and nutritionists . Fatty pancreas could be an initial indicator of ectopic fat deposition and an earlier manifestation of metabolic syndrome than fatty liver . A role of NAFPD in the development of "prediabetes" and T2DM has also been suggested by most human studies and pancreatic cancer.Pancreatic cancer often presents late with vague symptoms and is associated with poor prognosis due to rapid metastasisUnfournately, it is one of the cancers that harbors delayed diagnosis.However, there are currently no screening tool for pancreatic cancer. NAFPD has been strongly suggested to be involved in pancreatic carcinogenesis. So the use of FibroScan as simple , non invasive , unique tool will add much valiable to pick up and screen cases , it also diagnosis pancreatic fibrosis which is has a crucial role in carcinogenesis .To date this project will be the first world wide .
