    The Link between Diabetes and Certain Types of Cancers

    In this episode:Dr. Steve Edelman speaks with Dr. David Diamond, a radiation oncologist with deep expertise in pancreatic cancer, to explore the critical but often overlooked connection between diabetes and pancreatic cancer. They discuss the heightened risks for individuals with type 2 diabetes, the challenges in early detection, and why pancreatic cancer remains one of the most deadly cancers due to its lack of symptoms and effective screening methods.
