摘要：<p><strong>Introduction:</strong> The pancreatic cancer arises from non-invasive precursor lesions and develops through the accumulation of characteristic gene mutations. The recent scientific reports based on genetic tests state that the approximate time between cancerous initiation and the development of cancer with <a href="https://www.diki.pl/slownik-angielskiego?q=metastasis">metastasis</a>is15 years. We candistinguish three main precancerous lesions leading to the pancreatic cancer: pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN), mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCN), and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN). The imaging tests used for the diagnostics and observation of precancerous pancreas lesions are MR, MRC, CT and EUS.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Method:</strong> review of the recent literature based on PubMEd, Google scholar research based onthe following key words: pancreatic cancer, precancer of the pancreas, pancreatic cyst, tuber of the pancreas, medical imaging of the pancreas</p><p><strong>Purpose of the work</strong>: systematizing information about precancers of the pancreatic cancer based on the latest research and findings</p>
