We analyzed global gene expression patterns of 91 human hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) to define the molecular characteristics of the tumors and to test the prognostic value of the expression profiles. Unsupervised classification methods revealed two distinctive subclasses of HCC that are highly a

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most common neoplasm in the world, and the third most common cause of cancer-related death. It affects mainly patients with cirrhosis of any etiology. Patients with cirrhosis are thus usually included in surveillance plans aiming to achieve early detection
Precise diagnosis of well-differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is sometimes difficult to establish. Telomerase activity was examined by telomeric-repeat-amplification protocol (TRAP) in 37 HCC nodules smaller than 3 cm in diameter, including 24 fine-needle-aspiration biopsy specimens, 22 no
## Background: Tissue polypeptide specific antigen (tps) recently was introduced as an indicator of cell proliferation in various tumors. the authors investigated the value of serum tps as a complement to alpha-fetoprotein (afp) in the detection of hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc) in chinese patients
## Abstract ## Purpose To evaluate the usefulness of contrastβenhanced sonography (CEUS) in the diagnosis of small hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) measuring β€2 cm in diameter. ## Methods We identified 104 focal liver lesions measuring β€2 cm in 104 consecutive patients who were enrolled for baseli
