Identification of New Serum Diagnostic Markers of Hepatocellular Carcinoma
The purpose of this study is to identify blood markers that have the ability to diagnose liver cancer with improved accuracy, so that it can be used alone or in conjunction with alpha-feto protein (AFP)
Exploring the Association of Imaging and Tumor Microenvironment in Liver Cancer Using Radiogenomic Approach（Radiogenomics-Liver）
This is the prospective, observational cohort study (Radiogenomics-Liver), which aims to explore the relationship between the imaging information of liver cancer patients, tumor microenvironment and the prognosis of liver cancer patients.
Clinical Application of Quantitative Major Imaging Features of CEUS LI-RADS
Liver cancer (LC) is the sixth most common malignant tumor and the third cause of cancer mortality in the world. According to the 2018 United States Association for the Study of Liver Diseases guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of liver cancer, patients with HCC high-risk factors can be directly …
Development and Testing of a Patient-facing Educational Tool About Liver Cancer Prevention
To develop and test liver cancer prevention educational material.
The AMARA (As Much As Reasonably Achievable) Study
Subjects with large inoperable liver tumors defined as at least 1 lesion larger than 5cm in maximum diameter. For the purposes of the present study, we define the AMARA principle in intensified regional TARE as a planned irradiated tumor dose >200Gy by the partition model. The purpose of the study …
Evaluation of the Ablation of Hepatic Lesions by Electroporation
Irreversible electroporation is a curative treatment for cancerous liver lesions, performed on deep-seated tumors that are not eligible for surgical resection or percutaneous thermal ablation. The EVALHEP project aims to develop criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of the treatment based on imaging, mathematical models, and numerical simulations to assist radiologists …
Prospective Single-center Study About the Use of ctDNA in the Management of Patients With Tumors of the Gastrointestinal Tract
This study will evaluate the use of ctDNA in the clinical management of patients with tumors of the gastrointestinal tract.
Effect and Mechanism of ALPPS Operation on Liver Regeneration
Hepatobiliary malignancies-principally hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma (CCA)-are highly aggressive and often diagnosed at advanced stages. Curative-intent liver resection remains the standard for resectable disease; however, postoperative outcomes depend on an adequate functional future liver remnant (FLR). Associating Liver Partition and Portal Vein Ligation for Staged Hepatectomy (ALPPS) induces rapid …
Pre- and Post-operative TEG Indices in Patients With or Without Adenocarcinoma Undergoing Surgical Resection
The investigators hypothesize that abnormalities in thromboelastography (TEG) parameters in patients with liver, pancreas, biliary, esophageal, colorectal, and lung adenocarcinoma can serve as biomarkers for oncologic disease burden, cancer recurrence and overall survival as well as thrombotic and hemorrhagic post-operative complications. The investigators further hypothesize that there is histologic pathology …
Early Detection of Liver Cancer by QUS
Worldwide, liver cancers are the third most common cause of cancer mortality. Even when liver cancer is suspected by blood tests, imaging is required to determine the location, size, and extent of disease. Medical societies therefore recommend surveillance with ultrasound every 6 months in at-risk patients. However, a key challenge …
