Individuals between 50-80 years of age who have developed diabetes mellitus within the preceding year will be recruited through the offices of primary care physicians and endocrinologists. Those meeting initial criteria will meet with a research nurse and will undergo a secondary screen to determine eligibility. Individuals enrolled in the study will undergo a five-minute psychological survey and donation of a blood sample for bio-bank analysis every 6 months for 3 years. MRI will be performed annually for 2 years (3 in total). Any abnormalities on MRI will be reviewed by a multi-disciplinary tumor board and discussed with the participant.
