A Health Economic Evaluation of Routine Hepatocellular Carcinoma Surveillance for People with Compensated Cirrhosis to Support Australian Clinical Guidelines
Routine surveillance can improve the likelihood of early-stage detection of liver cancer, improving survival.Our modeling found that routine HCC surveillance with ultrasound would be cost-effective for people with liver cirrhosis in Australia.These findings can inform guidelines and investment in liver cancer control for high-risk patients.
