Diagnostic Ascertainment of Suspicious Pancreatic Mass: A Threshold Analysis  Amnon Sonnenberg, Sarah A. Rodriguez, Douglas O. Faigel  Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology  Volume 6, Issue 10, Pages 1162-1166 (October 2008) DOI: 10.1016/j.cgh.2008.05.015 Copyright © 2008 AGA Institute Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Decision tree of whether to perform a pancreaticoduodenectomy (Whipple procedure) in patients with a suspicious pancreatic lesion. LE, life expectancy; LEc, life expectancy with cancer; LEw, life expectancy with cancer after Whipple; Sw, survival after Whipple; Qw, quality of life after Whipple; Qc, quality of life with cancer; Cw, Whipple cost; Cy, life-year cost.

Figure 2 Influence of surgery cost on the threshold probability of pancreatic cancer. Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology 2008 6, 1162-1166DOI: (10.1016/j.cgh.2008.05.015) Copyright © 2008 AGA Institute Terms and Conditions

Figure 3 Influence of quality of life after surgery and life expectancy without pancreatic cancer on the threshold probability. Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology 2008 6, 1162-1166DOI: (10.1016/j.cgh.2008.05.015) Copyright © 2008 AGA Institute Terms and Conditions

Figure 4 Joint influence of life expectancy without pancreatic cancer and quality of life after surgery on the threshold probability. The threshold probability is represented by the height of the surface plane in the 3-dimensional frame.
