Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has an 8.5% 5-year survival rate. Early detection, increasing use of neoadjuvant therapy and the opportunity for oncologic surgery is the best chance for cure. EUS is considered to be the superior imaging modality to detect small (<20mm) PDAC lesions and their precursors. We aimed to identify suspect lesions on EUS performed before the eventual diagnosis of PDAC.
