Reciever Operating Chacteristic curves comparing NGAL, MIC-1, CA19-9 for differentiating PC from HC (panel A) and CP (panel B) and combination of CA19-9 and MIC-1 in differentiating treatment naïve resectable PC from CP.

<p>The combined use of MIC-1 with CA 19-9 significantly improved the sensitivity and accuracy in differentiating resectable PC from CP (AUC = 0.85 Vs 0.74, p = 0.029, C.I. 0.76–0.94) in comparison to CA19-9 alone.
