Mild Pancreatic Duct Dilatation Signals Higher Cancer Risk, Johns Hopkins Study Finds
New Insights into Pancreatic Cancer Risk Pancreatic cancer remains one of the most deadly cancers, with the National Institutes of Health projecting pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma to become the second-leading cause of cancer death in the United States by 2030. In this landscape, researchers at Johns Hopkins have explored whether a seemingly small anatomical change—the mild…

Concordant AI–Radiologist Findings on Mammography Predict Higher Five-Year Breast Cancer Risk
How Concordant AI and Radiologist Readings Elevate Risk Signals A new retrospective study published in Radiology: Artificial Intelligence has found that when a screening mammogram yields concordant positive results from both the radiologist and an AI tool, the five-year risk of developing breast cancer is markedly higher than when both interpretations are negative. The study…

Preoperative Frailty Predicts Postoperative Adverse Outcomes in Older Esophageal Cancer Patients Undergoing Esophagectomy
Introduction: Frailty as a Predictor in Esophageal Cancer Surgery As the global population ages, identifying which older patients are at higher risk for complications after major cancer surgery becomes essential. Recent research focused on esophageal cancer shows that frailty, assessed shortly before surgery, can significantly forecast short-term adverse outcomes after radical esophagectomy. The study centered…
