From WSJ...

WASHINGTON—Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on Friday completed a three-week course of radiation for a malignant tumor on her pancreas, which was “treated definitively,” the Supreme Court said in a statement.

The court said that there was “no evidence of disease elsewhere in the body,” and that Justice Ginsburg, 86 years old, “tolerated treatment well.”

I find the wording odd. Seems very guarded to me. Pancreatic cancer is tough. When looking at definition, you can see that there is more than what is being reported (potentially). Here’s what I found:

definitive treatment
The treatment plan for a disease or disorder that has been chosen as the best one for a patient after all other choices have been considered.(National Cancer Institute)

Pancreatic cancer does not typically metastasize, although it can attack the liver by direct invasion.
