No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of using a non-invasive, non-radioactive Pancreatic Breath Test (PBT) as a diagnostic tool to detect early stages of chronic pancreatitis (CP). If successful, this method could have important advantages over existing diagnostic tests for detecting early stage CP. This diagnostic breath test may have a clinical impact if it leads to early detection of CP and intervention to mitigate disease progression.
