Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is the second edition of the previous one, entitled “Advanced Strategies in the Care of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patients” (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/cancers/special_issues/C_HC).
We are honored to be the Guest Editors of this Special Issue of Cancers that summarizes current research in the diagnosis and treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HCC is the most common primary liver cancer, with geographical variations among its prevalence. With HCC still being the leading cause of death in patients with cirrhosis, and considering the worldwide increasing incidence in patients with underlying metabolic associated liver disease, working on HCC should be one of the research priorities. In this Special Issue, we welcome papers that enhance our knowledge of innovative diagnostic and prognostic methods and discuss the results of therapeutic experimentation, including those focused on translational research.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
Prof. Dr. Matteo Donadon
Prof. Dr. Guido Torzilli
