This issue details the latest knowledge of early diagnosis, risk
factors, limited surgical treatments, and novel therapies for
pancreatic diseases. Clinicians will learn the most prognostic
scoring systems for acute pancreatitis, review the basics for early
management of the disease, and see how current practice guidelines
have evolved. Advances in radiological imaging when applied to the
pancreas have resulted in enhanced staging and improved selection
for surgical intervention. Endoscopy of the pancreas via both ERCP
and endoscopic ultrasound has led to unprecedented access and
potential for non-operative intervention. Pancreatic surgery now
takes advantage of both minimally invasive approaches and
techniques learned from organ transplantation. These latest
advances are addressed in this issue by key opinion leaders.
