Liver function is normal liver cancer


Building bridges to better health.
Liver cancer is a common malignant tumor that usually has no obvious symptoms in the early stage, so it is difficult to detect. When symptoms appear, they are often in the middle and late stages and the treatment effect is not good. Therefore, early diagnosis of liver cancer is very important. B-ultrasound is a commonly used liver cancer screening method, which can detect lumps or nodules in the liver. However, B-ultrasound examination has certain limitations, such as small liver cancer nodules or nodules located deep in the liver may not be detected. Liver function tests are mainly used to assess whether liver function is normal, such as ALT, AST, bilirubin and other indicators. If liver function is normal, it can only indicate that liver function is basically normal, and cannot rule out the possibility of liver cancer. In addition to B-ultrasound and liver function tests, other tests are needed to confirm liver cancer, such as alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), liver enhanced CT or MRI. AFP is a specific marker of liver cancer and is important for the diagnosis of liver cancer. Liver enhanced CT or MRI can more clearly show masses or nodules in the liver and help diagnose liver cancer. For high-risk groups, such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C patients, long-term drinkers, cirrhosis patients, etc., liver cancer screening should be carried out regularly. For older people with a family history of liver cancer, vigilance should also be raised and timely examinations should be carried out. In short, B-ultrasound normal liver function can not completely rule out liver cancer, and other examinations are needed to confirm the diagnosis. High-risk groups should be regularly screened for liver cancer in order to detect liver cancer early and improve treatment effectiveness.
