Description
Gavin Wu, Nojan Bajestani, Nooruddin Pracha, Cindy Chen, and Mina Makary compare liver cancer surveillance guidelines in a review from 2024. Liver cancer kills many people worldwide, and stage at diagnosis drives outcomes. Regular checks of high-risk patients, such as those with cirrhosis, can catch tumors early. Guidelines from Asia-Pacific, American, and European bodies were compared in depth.
All three stress high-risk groups, but they differ on imaging choices and blood marker use. Check intervals and entry criteria also vary. New tools, including artificial intelligence, may sharpen detection. Patients with fatty liver disease but no cirrhosis remain under-covered. The authors call for harmonized rules and research on emerging screening methods.
