Tumors developing on the pancreas require imaging examinations to determine whether they are benign or malignant. If the tumor is benign, it can generally be completely cured through surgical removal. If it is malignant, in addition to surgery, treatments such as radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and targeted drug therapy are needed to control the tumor and prevent recurrence.
