The primary objective is to develop a scoring system using pancreatic volume measured by CT scan and intraoperative measurements of the pancreas parenchyma to predict the onset of diabetes mellitus after a pancreatectomy.

Patients will be followed up to one year to track their diabetes status, postoperative outcomes and quality of life.
