The pancreas is a gland in the left hypochondriac and upper epigastrium of the abdomen that is extremely sensitive and has the shape of an oblong. It is directly behind the stomach. Pancreatic diseases have long been notoriously difficult to study and comprehend due to their location. In order to perform a thorough examination and make a diagnosis of pancreatic conditions, highly specialized equipment and expertise are frequently required, which is not always the case, particularly in developing nations. Because the pancreas is frequently obscured by abdominal gas or other organs and cannot be fully visualized, routine, cost-effective imaging techniques like trans abdominal ultrasound are not very accurate in diagnosing pancreatic diseases. Additionally, the symptoms of pancreatic diseases are frequently multifactorial, vague, and nonspecific, leading to a poor diagnosis in only 9.7% of cases. The use of more efficient diagnostic methods is costly, invasive, and necessitates access to specialists who are well-versed in pancreatic disease, which further complicates the diagnosis.
