What are the methods of early liver cancer examination

1. Alpha fetoprotein determination: this diagnostic method is to use the immune method to determine the production of embryonic antigen, which is currently one of the more effective methods to diagnose the disease specificity. If no other evidence of liver cancer is found, the positive rate of α - FP counter immunoelectrophoresis is more than 500 ng / ml and lasts for more than one month, excluding active liver cancer and pregnancy, and excluding germ gland embryonal tumor, it can be diagnosed as liver cancer.   

2. CT examination: this method of diagnosis of liver cancer has the characteristics of high resolution, can find about 1 cm in diameter of patients with early liver cancer, enhanced scanning can help identify hemangioma. The accuracy of diagnosis of liver cancer is as high as 90%, but the cost is expensive, so it is not common.   

3. Blood enzymology examination: the serum level of Γ - glutamyl transpeptidase in patients with this disease is higher than that in normal people, and lactate dehydrogenase isoenzyme and alkaline phosphatase are also higher than those in normal people, but this diagnosis lacks specificity, so it is only used as auxiliary diagnosis.

matters needing attention
