Adenocarcinoma of the Pancreas

  • Chapter
Radiology of the Pancreas

Abstract

Ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas is of increasing medical importance in the United States. The age-adjusted mortality rate has risen from 2.9 to 9.0 per 100,000 population between the years 1920–1970 (1). This represents an increase of over 300%. Since the mean survival of patients with pancreatic carcinoma is only 4.3 months from time of diagnosis, the mortality and incidence rates essentially are equal (2,3).
