Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Pancreatic Cancer (PC) is a highly aggressive tumor that is mainly diagnosed at later stages. Various imaging technologies, such as CT, MRI, and EUS, possess limitations in early PC diagnosis. Therefore, this review article explores the various innovative biomarkers for PC detection, such as DNA methylation, Noncoding RNAs, and proteomic biomarkers, and the role of AI in PC detection at early stages.
