If a patient is diagnosed with liver diseases, the doctor recommends going for screening for liver cancer.

• Jaundice Symptoms
• Dark urine
• Fever, severe fatigue, bloating
• Legs or abdomen swelling
• Abdominal pain

If a person experiences any of the above symptoms, then it is recommended he/she goes through the required diagnostic tests early to get timely treatment.

• Medical History
• Physical Examination
• Blood Tests
• Imaging
• Biopsy
• Test for FLL-HCC

• Surgery: Surgery involves partial removal of the liver that is damaged while keeping the good portions intact. But if unavoidable, the entire organ is removed.

• Liver Transplantation: This procedure is advised if the patient is still in early cancer stages, and the tumor has not spread to surrounding tissues and blood vessels.

• Minimally Invasive Treatments: If liver cancer is diagnosed earlier, the tumors can be targeted by minimally invasive techniques.
  • Laparoscopy
  • Ablation
  • Vapourising a tumor with intense heat
  • Nanoknife sends electrical charges to destroy the tumors
  • Embolization interrupts blood flow to the cancer cells.
• Chemotherapy: Chemotherapy uses anti-cancer drugs and helps to kill cancer cells. The type of chemotherapy that will be recommended will depend on the type of primary cancer. 
• Radiation Therapy: Radiation therapy is used along with the above procedures. In Image-guided radiation therapy, tumors are targeted using real-time images. Radiation therapy is used to reduce tumors in the liver. It is not a significant part of cancer treatment. This is because other treatments tend to give better results.
