How fibrosis influences imaging and surgical decisions in pancreatic cancer
Our understanding of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is shifting away from a disease of malignant ductal cells-only, towards a complex system where tumor evolution is a result of interaction of cancer cells with their microenvironment. This change has led to intensification of research focusing on...
