Early Diagnosis of Pancreatic Cancer Gives Hope

We don’t usually think of pancreatic cancer with optimism, but there is hope for better outcomes if the cancer is diagnosed early. Consultant clinical oncologist Dr Jennifer Leong shares more about the urgent need to treat pancreatic cancer if it is picked up early, while clinical psychologist from the National Cancer Society of Malaysia Lee Kah Yee sheds light on how emotional and psychological support can help patients and caregivers navigate this difficult journey.
