Abstract
One of the key echographic signs of focal pathology of the pancreas is the presence of formation contours and their nature. Endoscopic ultrasonography has a unique ability to visualize the echographic texture of the pancreatic parenchyma, and also allows you to assess in detail the boundaries and nature of the contours of the tumor formations of the organ due to the proximity of the ultrasound sensor. However, the differential diagnosis of focal pancreatic lesions remains a difficult clinical task due to the similarity of their echosemiotics. One of the ways to objectify and improve the accuracy of ultrasound data is the use of artificial intelligence methods for interpreting images. Improving the quality of differential diagnosis of focal pathology of the pancreas according to endoscopic ultrasonography based on the analysis of the nature of the contours of focal formations using fuzzy mathematical models.

Abstract
Pancreatic cancer is often detected in late stages, which contributes to its grim prognosis. Although the manifestations of pancreatic cancer most often include nonspecific gastrointestinal complaints, we report a case with the sole initial complaint of halitosis and subsequent diagnostic workup demonstrating a pancreatic mass with secondary pancreatocolonic fistulization. The etiologies of and the radiological findings pertaining to halitosis, the presenting symptoms and imaging studies relevant to the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer, and the imaging and clinical findings of pancreatic fistulization are discussed.
