Objective To investigative current status and hotspot issues of pancreatic cancer imaging research.Methods The literatures focusing on pancreatic cancer and published from 2001 to 2020 were retrieved from the core database of Web of Science. The quantitative analysis of literatures was then conducted by using the CiteSpace software based on the bibliometric method. The research trend was then summarized systematically and the potential research fronts and focuses were explored.Results A total of 2111 articles in the field of pancreatic cancer imaging research were retrieved. The clustering of co-citation of pancreatic cancer included vascular resection, irreversible electroporation, autoimmune pancreatitis, sporadic pancreatic cancer, sarcopenia, pancreas, stereotactic body radiation therapy, metastatic pancreatic cancer, familial pancreatic cancer, abdominal ultrasonography, fibroblast, early diagnosis, time trends in survival, radiomics, pancreatitis, gemcitabine, concurrent chemoradiotherapy, adjuvant chemotherapy, and microbubbles. The burst keywords in the field of pancreatic cancer after 2016 included FOLFIRINOX, skeletal muscle, sarcopenia, and texture analysis. The hot keywords clustering had prognosis, fine needle aspiration, positron emission tomography, vascular invasion, angiogenesis, unresectable, liver transplant, extend pancreatectomy, transplantation, paclitaxel, metastatic colorectal cancer, colorectal cancer, microsatellite stable, radiomics, hospital volume, occult metastasis, risk factor.Conclusion It might be the trend of imaging research to study the prognosis, risk factors, and quantitative sarcopenia of pancreatic cancer by using radiomics.
