This observational study focuses on patients with various pancreatic diseases, excluding cancer, to develop diagnostic tools for differentiating between benign, potentially malignant, and malignant conditions. It involves the collection of clinical data and biological samples to enhance understanding and management of pancreatic pathologies. The study aims to improve monitoring and diagnostic performance for conditions such as acute and chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cysts.
