Advances in Pancreatic Cancer
Pancreatic cancer arises when cells in the pancreas, a glandular organ behind the stomach, begin to multiply out of control and form a mass. These cancerous cells have the ability to invade other parts of the body. A number of types of pancreatic cancer are known. In the present book, sixteen typical literatures about Pancreatic Cancer published on international authoritative journals were selected to introduce the worldwide newest progress, which contains reviews or original researches on Pancreatic Cancer. We hope this book can demonstrate advances in Pancreatic Cancer as well as give references to the researchers, students and other related people.
