OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the image quality and lesion detectability of pancreatic phase thin-slice computed tomography (CT) images reconstructed with a deep learning-based reconstruction (DLR) algorithm compared with filtered-back projection (FBP) and ...
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Early and accurate diagnosis of pancreatic cancer is crucial for improving patient outcomes, and artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms have the potential to play a vital role in computer-aided diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. In t...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Endoscopic ultrasonography-guided fine-needle aspiration/biopsy (EUS-FNA/B) is considered to be a first-line procedure for the pathological diagnosis of pancreatic cancer owing to its high accuracy and low complication rate. The ...
BACKGROUND: Although robotic surgery has rapidly spread in pancreatectomy [1], the procedure is performed by the da Vinci™ Surgical System (Intuitive Surgical Inc., CA), the most common surgical robot in the world [2]. We herein present our first exp...
PURPOSE: To evaluate the image quality and visibility of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in 80-kVp pancreatic CT protocol and compare them between hybrid-iterative reconstruction (IR) and deep-learning image reconstruction (DLIR) algorithms.

BACKGROUND: Pancreatic ductal carcinoma patients have a really poor prognosis given its difficult early detection and the lack of early symptoms. Digital pathology is routinely used by pathologists to diagnose the disease. However, visually inspectin...
Pancreatic cancer is associated with higher mortality rates due to insufficient diagnosis techniques, often diagnosed at an advanced stage when effective treatment is no longer possible. Therefore, automated systems that can detect cancer early are c...
BACKGROUND: Central pancreatectomy (CP) has been established as the most common type of parenchyma-sparing pancreatectomy; however, CP is associated with higher morbidity and a higher pancreatic fistula (PF) rate than distal pancreatectomy or pancrea...
