چکیده
Newly diagnosed Pancreatic Cancer Patients are naturally curious about their disease. Information can help them deal with the trauma of their diagnosis and help them make informed decisions about their course of treatments and options. Unfortunately, the web can be a vast and overwhelming challenge, especially for someone who is already feeling overwhelmed and alone due to a harsh and sobering cancer diagnosis. The goal of our Pancreatic Cancer Search Facilitator is to alleviate a lot of the stress related to inaccurate and spam like search results stemming from typical Internet search engines. Patients should get fewer and more accurate results to their searches with this specialized search engine made specifically for their topic of interest.
