Article Synopsis
  • Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a serious cancer where accurately assessing resectability through CT scans is essential for determining the best treatment options for patients.
  • In a study involving 96 clinicians, it was found that there was significant variability in how different surgeons and radiologists agreed on the resectability of pancreatic tumors based on CT scans.
  • The results highlighted a fair overall agreement score of 0.32, with radiologists demonstrating better consistency than surgeons, indicating a need for more standardized assessment processes and central reviews in future treatments and studies.
