Whether color Doppler ultrasound can detect pancreatic cancer needs to be analyzed based on the specific situation.

Can pancreatic cancer be diagnosed?

For the early stage of pancreatic cancer, due to the limited lesions and small lesions, coupled with the interference of surrounding organs and intestinal gas, it is generally not easy to detect through color Doppler ultrasound. CT, magnetic resonance and other examinations are sensitive. When the disease gradually develops and progresses to an advanced stage, due to the relatively large local space-occupying lesions, color Doppler ultrasound can usually be used to detect it. However, the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer cannot rely solely on imaging examination, and a final diagnosis can only be made through pathological tissue biopsy.
