🔬#MedicalBreakthrough: Analysis of scar tissue around pancreatic tumors identifies two patient groups, with one living almost two years longer. 🌟 Personalized treatments on the horizon. ow.ly/G93s50QbMWv #PancreaticCancer @LongakerLab @StanfordPlastic

Scar tissue holds hints about pancreatic cancer outcome, Stanford Medicine-led research finds

Pancreatic cancer is deadly, and its toll is growing. Scientists find that scar tissue around the tumor suggests how long a patient will live after diagnosis.
