China is a big country in liver cancer . About 110,000 people die from liver cancer every year, accounting for 45% of the total number of liver cancer patients worldwide. After getting liver cancer, the harm to health is still quite great. It is recommended that everyone have regular physical examinations. So what are the liver cancer screening items? These inspection items are introduced in detail below.

Common liver cancer examination items:

1. Liver function test

This is a routine examination and an important reference for many liver diseases. The liver function of liver cancer patients generally does not have problems, but if liver cancer patients are accompanied by severe cirrhosis , they may have abnormal liver function . Severe liver function damage is generally seen in patients with advanced liver cancer.

2. Tumor marker examination

(1) alpha-fetoprotein: This item is indispensable in the prevention of liver cancer and is an important indicator for the diagnosis of primary liver cancer . It is very useful for early diagnosis, differential diagnosis and clear diagnosis. Significance. Alpha-fetoprotein examination can help people detect liver cancer early, block the progression of the disease in time, and improve the survival rate of patients.

(2) serum ferritin : This test is second only to the alpha-fetoprotein serum marker, because the virus in liver cancer patients can cause liver tissue necrosis, and the ferritin that should be in the liver enters blood. The higher the ferritin test value, the more severe the condition. The accuracy of ferritin in diagnosing liver cancer is as high as 50%-90%.

3. Serum measurement

(1) Alkaline phosphatase (AKP): alkaline phosphatase in the serum samples of most liver cancer patients shows an upward trend. When alkaline phosphatase exceeds 20 units and there is no jaundice , it indicates that we may have liver cancer.

(2) glutamyl transpeptidase: The accuracy is about 95%. The increase in this index mainly comes from the liver cancer virus itself.

hopes that everyone will go to the hospital regularly to do these examinations in their daily lives. This is the best way to prevent liver cancer. Once a problem is discovered during the inspection, it is best to deal with it in time to avoid causing more serious harm.
