Pancreatic cancer is a deadly disease and the best hope for improving the chances of survival is to find it early. Some patients, called "high risk", have an inherited predisposition to pancreatic cancer. Certain medical centers have started programs where "high risk patients" undergo testing, such as receiving imaging scans, to look for…
