Background
In some people, diabetes in later life is caused by an undiagnosed pancreatic cancer. It is not known, however, whether screening people with new-onset diabetes would reduce pancreatic cancer mortality.
Aim
The PaC-NOD Pilot Study aims to test the feasibility of conducting a large-scale randomised controlled trial of screening people with new-onset diabetes using CT scans
Approach
The project will primarily include qualitative methods, with some relatively simple quantitative analyses included.
Project Potential
This project will determine whether a large-scale screening trial is feasible.
