Can color Doppler ultrasound examine pancreatic cancer

summary

My father always felt pain in his upper abdomen in the first half of this year. The digestion is not good, the taste is not as good as before, and the weight loss is very fast. Recently, I feel more abdominal pain. I went for an ultrasound, a CT, and an MRI, and it turned out to be pancreatic cancer. Today, let me share with you the question of whether color Doppler ultrasound can detect pancreatic cancer.

Can color Doppler ultrasound examine pancreatic cancer

First: weight loss, pancreatic cancer caused by weight loss is the most prominent, after the onset of a short period of time that appears obvious emaciation, weight loss can reach more than 30 jin, accompanied by weakness and fatigue.

Second: symptomatic diabetes, a small number of patients initially manifested as symptoms of diabetes. Therefore, if patients with diabetes have persistent abdominal pain, or diabetes suddenly occurs in the elderly, or the original diabetes suddenly worsens in the near future, we should be alert to the possibility of pancreatic cancer.

Third: thrombophlebitis, advanced pancreatic cancer patients with migratory thrombophlebitis or arterial thrombosis.

matters needing attention

CT scan of patients with pancreatic cancer showed local mass, abnormal enlargement of part or all of the contour of pancreas and disappearance of fat layer around pancreas.
