Abstract
|
|
|
Surveillance of hepatocellular carcinoma has been implemented as a part of National Cancer Screening Program in Korea since 2003. The efficacy of the program in HCC screening is, however, to be validated yet. In this issue, Shim et al assessed the outcome of the program in a single-hospital based population, and showed that invitations for initial screening need to be modified to enhance the performance of the program.
