AB A recent study suggests that a method that identifies exposure to viral infections could allow earlier diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The method discriminated patients with HCC from at-risk and healthy people and determined that at-risk individuals developed HCC almost 9 years earlier than it could be detected with standard screening techniques.
