Quick MRI may outshine ultrasound for liver cancer detection
Diagnosis CompletedThis study tested whether a shorter, contrast-enhanced MRI (called AMRI) is better than standard ultrasound for finding liver cancer early in people with cirrhosis. 79 adults with cirrhosis underwent both scans, and researchers compared how accurately each method detected cancer.…

Thousands tracked in Largest-Ever liver cancer bead therapy registry
Knowledge-focused CompletedThis registry followed over 1,000 liver cancer patients who received SIR-Spheres—tiny radioactive beads injected into the liver's blood supply to kill tumors. The goal was to see how this treatment is used in real hospitals and how it affects survival, side effects, and quality o…

Scientists peer into liver cancer cells to unlock secrets
Knowledge-focused CompletedThis study looked at liver cancer cells from 30 patients to understand how they differ from healthy cells. Researchers isolated these cells to create 3D lab models called organoids. The goal was to learn more about the behavior and genetics of liver cancer, not to test a new trea…
