62-year-old male presented to ED with gross hematuria and underwent CT which demonstrated bladder diverticulum, this CT also described an incidental 1.3 cm pancreatic cyst. This patient continued to be active within the health system but no one was made aware of the pancreatic cyst until he was identified via our software 2 years later. The surveillance MRI showed interval growth to 1.6 cm and now the patient is scheduled for FNA.
Using Discovery360 to manage patients with incidental pancreatic cysts empowers patients to play an active role in their care.
Because these patients often need surveillance over multiple years, the Discovery360 enables nurse navigators to track patients despite health system gaps. It also facilitates documentation specifically related to the pancreatic cyst such as morphology, location, size, presence of high-risk features, growth from prior exam and multiplicity which can simplify reporting.
