Summary

This study tests whether sending mailed invitations and assigning patient navigators can increase attendance at liver cancer ultrasound screenings for people with cirrhosis or chronic hepatitis B. Over 650 participants will be split into two groups: one receiving these extra supports and one getting usual care. The goal is to see if these simple steps lead to more early-stage liver cancer diagnoses.
