A new study suggests that with better diagnosis a significant proportion of patients with pancreatic cystic neoplasms could be spared from surgery.

Intracavity, real-time assessment of margins using a novel imaging agent and visualization system may improve complete resection rates, new findings show.

Making lung tumors glow with the imaging agent pafolacianine leads to more thorough resections, trial data show; however, theres no survival data yet.

Trial results show that elective sigmoid resection offers better quality of life and decreased recurrence compared with conservative treatment for those who experience at least three episodes in 2 years.
