Pancreatic Cyst and Cancer Early Detection Clinic

The Indiana University Pancreatic Cyst and Cancer Early Detection Clinic

The Indiana University Pancreatic Cyst and Cancer Early Detection Clinic (PCC-EDC) coordinates the care, follow-up and research involving nearly 1,000 patients at increased risk of pancreatic cancer. The clinic seeks to accurately identify, screen and risk stratify patients at increased risk for pancreatic cancer to promote early detection and prevention. It keeps a registry to track all patients to optimize follow-up and update patients of new developments. The clinic is multidisciplinary (surgery, gastroenterology, radiology, pathology, cytopathology, cytogenetics, nutrition and social work) to promote optimal care. All patient consultations and visits are routinely performed by a pancreatic surgeon or pancreatologist.

The mission of the PCC-EDC is to promote early detection and prevent pancreatic cancer through multidisciplinary screening clinics, registries, community outreach, education and research discovery.
