[|Human|] My query is on liver cancer and hepatitis B. The doctors seem not too sure about whether my brother has liver cancer. After one test they say he has no cancer, the next day they say they are not sure. He is still in ICU. They say his liver is enlarged and there are lesions on the surface (10). The doctor says theres a 95% chance that the blood tests are positive for liver cancer. He cannot say for sure since they cant do a biopsy because he is very ill.I dont know what to make of all this. Please advise
[|AI|]  Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. There are many tests used to confirm the liver cancer. Biopsy and histopathological examination is the test of choice. If he is very ill and biopsy is not possible then ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration cytology can be done. Blood markers like alpha photo protein is useful. Ct scan can also give idea regarding liver cancer. Consult your doctor and discuss regarding these options.
