Technologies for prevention liver cancer in Egypt

Abstract

Deaths from liver cancer are common, especially in East Asia and Pacific, South Asia, and parts of Sub-Saharan Africa, largely as a result of infection decades ago. Controlling the risk factors would not only reduce the incidence of liver cancer; it would also reduce the incidence of cirrhosis and its other complications. This paper will discuss the clinical implications of imaging in screening, diagnosis, staging, and follow-up of patients in liver malignancies.
