Abstract:
Pancreatic fibrosis is an important pathological feature of pancreatic cancer and chronic pancreatitis,and plays an important role in the progression of pancreatic cancer and chronic pancreatitis.Pancreatic fibrosis blocks the chemotherapy drugs from reaching the cancer cells to do their job and also affects the stiffness of the pancreatic tissue.Therefore,it is important to assess the degree of pancreatic fibrosis as an adjunct to surgical and chemotherapeutic treatments for pancreatic cancer and chronic pancreatitis.In recent years,there have been new research advances and technological breakthroughs in non-invasive diagnostic methods for pancreatic fibrosis.The fields of CT,ultrasound elastography and magnetic resonance imaging have extended new imaging techniques,yielded new imaging indices to assess the degree of pancreatic fibrosis.In this paper,we have collected relevant literatures since 2018 to describe the research progress related to non-invasive diagnostic methods for pancreatic fibrosis.
