Tests may include MRI with MRCP, pancreas-protocol CT, EUS, cyst-fluid CEA or glucose, amylase, cytology, molecular testing, liver tests, and selected tumor markers. The exact combination depends on cyst features and symptoms.
EUS uses a flexible endoscope with ultrasound to examine the pancreas from the stomach and small intestine. Fluid or tissue may be sampled when the result could change surveillance or surgery decisions. Procedure availability may be onsite or coordinated with an advanced endoscopy facility; confirm when booking.

Risk is estimated from cyst type, size, growth, duct communication, mural nodules, solid components, main-duct dilation, symptoms, fluid testing, cytology, age, and health. Many cysts are low risk, but selected lesions are precancerous or cancerous.
Surveillance intervals depend on cyst type, size, growth, duct changes, nodules, symptoms, age, health, and surgical candidacy. Some patients need short-interval imaging; others are monitored annually or less often.

Most low-risk cysts are managed without surgery through MRI or MRCP surveillance. EUS helps clarify uncertain lesions. Drainage is used for selected inflammatory collections, while surgery is reserved for high-risk, cancerous, or significantly symptomatic cysts.
