Pancreatic function studies
The easiest way to test for normal pancreatic function is by a sample of stool but more formal pancreatic function studies may occur via collection of the juice produced by the pancreas under direct vision by sucking this out by endoscopy and this may take up to an hour. This is an unusual test to be needed however.
