The head, neck, body, and tail are the four main sections of the pancreas. The head, also referred to as the duodenum, is the part of the small intestine that is the widest. The head is typically the area that is affected when a pancreatic tumour is present. A 2008 study found that individuals with tumours in the pancreas' body or tail had lower survival rates than those with cancer in the organ's head.
