Core Tip
Core Tip: Pancreatic cancer is a lethal health problem. Most pancreatic cancers asymptomatic in the early stages, without noticeable clinical presentation in the early stage. Surgical resection is the only approach for pancreatic cancer. Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) provides precise evaluations of tumor, invasion, and lymph node involvement, but a singular imaging modality appears inadequate for the preoperative staging of pancreatic cancer. Our review aims to reveal the diagnosis and staging of EUS in pancreatic cancer.
